Default Macros Broken, VB Editor doesn't open

After attempting to create a macro of my own in Outlook 2003, one which
would require to hook on to the send event at startup, something
happened, and now nothing in the Macro menu opens (the editor,
security, or macros).

They do open up in other Office apps, just not OL. This has also
survived an uninstall/reinstall cycle, so either it's a hidden file
somewhere, or (surprise) Microsoft doesn't clean up after itself very
well when uninstalling.

Any ideas on what could've caused this?

Your Outllook VBA add-in has probably become disabled. I should know because
I banged my head against the wall for weeks trying to figure this one out,
including doing a full Office uninstall/reinstall.

HELP ABOUT MicroSoft Office OUTLOOK

Click on 'Disabled Items'

Leave it to the geniuses in Seattle to not even thing about putting in a
'ENABLE/DISABLE VBA Add-In' menu option where you would expect to find it
namely ToolsMacros.
