out of office will not turn off

[David]

Using outlook 2003 I can't get the ouf of office assitant to turn off. A
co-worker suggested removing the resilient key in the registry but I can't
seem to find this.
Is there a command line switch to reset this to the default of OFF.
Or can someone tell me where to delete the registry entry to turn off out of
office assistance..

thanks in advance

Goto the help menu and click on "About Outlook" and click on "Disabled Items".

Your more then likely going to find the Out of office assistant in there.
click on it and re enable it.

Good luck,

Mike

Mike,

thanks, but mus have not made myself clear, the Out Of Office assisant will
NOT turn OFF, inspite of the fact I have turned it off.. It seems like
there is a registry entry out of synch with the application.

thanks for the input

I understood you...

Check out what I wrote and get it re-enabled from the help menu and clicking
on disabled items, look for it in the list and re -enable it. Then you
should be able to go to your out of office assistant and turn it off.

Good Luck,

Mike

I am having this problem as well.

I have turned it off - and it shows it as being off and the text that I
had entered in is also deleted, but the people who email me still get
the message with the text I had in there.

It is not listed as a disabled item so the suggestion made here does
not work for me.

Please help.
