Hi.
Running Office/Outlook 2003. When I try to add a "new appointment" on any
day or time I get an error: "The form required to view this message cannot
be displayed. Contact your administrator". It's a standalone home system. I
tried to repair my Office installation, no good. Any ideas? I used to be
able to do this.

Have you tried shutting down Outlook/Windows and restarting? Does running scanpst.exe against your .pst file help?

Try clearing the Forms Cache.

Thanks, this one worked.
I did notice that when I looked at the properties of the APPOINTMENTS form,
This was in the "Live Search Maps Add-in for Microsoft Office Outlook"
Since I very rarely do add an appointment in there, I probably haven't
since I added that plug-in. That's what may have screwed it up. Oh well,
thanks again.
