See if renaming msmapi32.dll to msmapi32.old and repairing adn then
restarting Outlook helps.

I had the same problem and found this fix in another outlook newsgroup on
this site. Rename MSMAPI32.dll to MSMAPI32.xxx. I did this and outlook
reconfigured itself and recovered my emails and addresses. It worked for me.
Good luck.

Thank you from Australia - I now have outlook back.

I too installed Office 2007 and I'm sorry that I did. Even after deleting it
and reinstalling Office 2003 I could not open Outlook.

Thank you so much this was the trick that finally worked. I had tried I
don't know how many other suggestions, and was almost ready to settle for
o.l.express yuck.

Thanks again.
