Can't start Outlook 2003

[Brian Curry]

When I try to start Outlook I get an error message that my address book is
not installed properly - despite re-installing successfully!
Previously I got the message:
The extension configuration file "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\Addins\fldpub.ecf" could not be installed. There is an error in
the syntax or format of the file.
Can anyone help? Thanks in anticipation.

Hi Brian,

have a look on this posting with information by Brian Tillman:

It seems that you can delete the file because it is not supported in Outlook
2003, it is a part of the "Netfolders" funcion of Outlook 98/2000.

Maybe it helps.
