The reply and forward buttons and menu commands have stopped working
properly. Just discovered it and I don't use them all that much, so
I can only guess that it began sometime in the last three weeks or
so.

The "unexpected behavior" is that clicking on "reply" or "forward"
brings up an error message: "The file:
drive\directory\directory\outlook.pst could not be found."

The post new message and the reply to group commands are still
working.

Many things have changed in the last three weeks, but the only
possible causes I can think of are five or six security patches to
XP, and the application of Serv. Pack 2 to Office 2003.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

What's odd is the need for a *.pst file. From my understanding you
can use those types of files to import or export data, such as moving
from one PC to another, but not sure why the program would need the
file on a regular basis. I though the pst files were only temporary
text files. Maybe one of the security patches didn't finish up?

PST is the Outlook file, and isn't used by OE (Outlook Express).

Outlook (not OE), uses OE however, to read newsgroups.

I can't tell from the rather vague descrip what's up though; OP needs to add
more descriptions.
