Please Close ALL Microsoft Office applications

[Boblink]

Hi, when I shutdown or restart my system, I receive an error message advising
me to "Please close all Microsoft Office applications before shuttind down
the system".
I have a Dell system with 1G RAM, WindowsXp Pro and OfficeXp and I would
appreciate if someone could please advise em what settings I need to change
to stop this from occuring?
Thanks,
Bob

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=304183 "You receive a message
when you shut down Windows 2000 Professional with Outlook 2002 running".
Although the article addresses Windows 2000, the suggested resolution
may apply to your situation too.

Thanks for hetting back to me garfield-n-odie, the article describes what to
do to get out of the situation and restart the system. I know how to do
this, what I am loikng for is a permanent fix that would prevent this from
happening and allow me shutdown the system without manually closing Outlook.
Thanks, Bob
