Ugly Outlook 2003 Problem - Out of Memory

[David Allen]

Hopefully someone can give me a quick answer to this problem...

I just upgraded my Office XP installation to Office 2003 Enterprise. Now,
whenever I try to open an email or calendar item, task or note, I get the
following error:

"Can't open this item. Out of memory or system resources. Close some windows
or programs and try again."

I have tons of diskspace and memory available. I am running on Windows
Server 2003.

Any ideas?

Solved it. It turned out to be the MS Exchange connection. Changed it to
"Use Cached Exchange Mode" then changed it back, and everything worked fine.

Try minimizing Outlook 2003 to release the lion's share of its memory.
