Using Outlook 2000 SR-1 Standard upgraded from Outlook 97 Professional under
Windows 98 SE with a POP3 account under either IMO or C/W mode. Under IMO (Internet Mail Only) mode: "Tools - Accounts..." doesn't respond. "Tools - Options - Mail Delivery - Accounts..." doesn't respond. "Tools - Send/Receive" menu missing. Corresponding button also missing. Under C/W mode: "Tools - Services - Internet E-mail - Properties" doesn't respond. "Tools - Options - Mail Services - Check for new mail on:" is empty. Updating Outlook 2000 to a later SR hasn't helped. Still receiving email at my ISP. Unable to find existing solution on newsgroup. How can I fix this? Your help appreciated. |

Hi,
Can you checkif Outlook freezes when you open Outlook through Start-Run-outlook /safe Also, search and rename 'extend.dat', 'views.dat', 'frmcache.dat', 'outcmd.dat' files to 'file name.old'. Also, if Windows generates an error report, provide the 'Mod Name' in Error report.

Tried "outlook /safe". Doesn't freeze.
Renamed files ... no change. C/W mode says "There was an error reading your Internet e-mail service. Click the Tools menu, click Services, delete the service and then create a new one." This is the only error I get.

I tried that and have the same problem with the new profile:
Under C/W mode: "Tools - Services - Internet E-mail - Properties" doesn't respond. "Tools - Options - Mail Services - Check for new mail on:" is empty.

Try creating a new profile in Outlook 2000 in CWG Mode and try to open Outlook in the new profile. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=195718 Thanks, Mittu "QuasiChameleon" wrote: Tried "outlook /safe".

BTW -- This seems to be a problem bigger than Outlook 2000, as I tried
to configure Outlook Express and "Tools - Accounts" is missing there also. Perhaps this is a Windows problem. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Dial-Up Networking 1.6 for Windows 98 SE, and this didn't fix the problem. Kevin QuasiChameleon wrote: Tried "outlook /safe". Doesn't freeze.

Unless I get a solution to this problem by the weekend, I'm seriously
thinking of reinstalling my operating system and starting from scratch! Kevin |
