Brilliant,

Thanks for the Outlook.exe /resetnavpane command. I have uninstalled Office
2007and re-installed etc. with no luck. Just ran this and instantly
everything was working again.

Thankyou....

email made difficult and I was stupid enough to purchase this program .

I got Outlook to open after doing this, but it's as if it is a brand new
program. I lost 3 years of saved files. Is there a way to recover them?
Thanks,
Scott

Resetting the Navigation Pane does not do this. Open the Mail applet in
Control Panel and click the Show Profiles button. How many profiles do you
see? If more than one, one of them will be your old profile. Select that as
the one to open.

If you have only one, click the Data Files tab and click Add. Browse to your
old PST, select it, and click OK. The use the Set as Default button to return
Outlook to its former state.

This discussion looks like the solution I need but I am not sure how to run
that command: outlook.exe /resetnavpane?
I tried the run command and it is not working.
Can someone clarify this for me?

With Outlook closed, click Start (the Windows orb), then Run. Enter

outlook.exe /resetnavpane

in the Open field, being sure to include the space after ".exe", then press
Enter or click OK. For Vista, instead of clicking Run, you can enter the
command into the Search box on the Start menu or you can add the Run command
to the Start menu by right-clicking the Taskbar, choosing Properties,
selecting the Start Menu tab, clicking Customize, locating the Run command and
checking it, then OKing out of all the dialogues. You can also simply press
WinKey+R to display the Run dialogue.
