Win XP SP2 and Outlook

J

Jeff

We recently install SP 2 for XP and since then when we access outlook, the
messages won't show up till you click somewhere in the outlook program.

I have 2 machines setup to test and have my outlook opened on both. 1 of the
machines have XP SP2 on there and the other is XP SP1. When I send an email
to my account, on the machine with sp1 on it the messages shows right up. On
the machine with XP SP 2 on it, the message never shows up until I select a
folder or an old message in outlook. I have also tried to not touch anything
and the message will never show until something is selected.

I hope this makes sense and thanks in advance for any help.

It goes without saying that you have wasted my time by not posting your
Outlook verions. In the future, be more considerate of the time and effort
the volunteers spend here - post ALL relevant information, especially
Outlook/Office versions.

Well, it goes without saying that you have now wasted my time suggesting this
fix that does not work. Thanks. I won't waste your time anymore.

And I suppose that you will not waste any more time by actually doing a
search for yourself using the link I supplied? Thanks for shopping, please
drive through.

I did do a search and could not find a fix for the problem. That's why I
asked on here. If I could find the answer myself, I wouldn't waste my time on
here.

Thanks for not helping. you rock
