OUTLOOK 2003..help
Whenever I go to open my OUTLOOK I am told that the personal folder was closed improperly, and will need to be scanned. It will then take forever to open up.
Any ideas why this is happening and how I can repair it?

I did that already..I think I did it a couple times and it didn't help.
Any other suggestions?

I did a google search for that problem and got a lot hits on this - apparently it's a common problem.
One possible "fix" that I came across on several different sites was to run scanpst.exe against your pst-file and see if it comes up with anything.
Do a google search for "Outlook 2003 personal folders not closed properly" and you will get the info.

I have Office 2003 (and use Outlook 2003). There is a "Detect and Repair" procedure (listed under the Help drop down menu) that MAY take care of any problems. You will need the MS Office install disc for this procedure.
