Can't send/receive; extend.dat; other issues Outlook 2003
I don't know if these issues are related or not, but I am having trouble
sending or receiving. The issues are sporadic. Sometimes nothing will send
or receive, and exiting and restarting the program fixes the problem. I also
sometimes get the error that Outlook was not closed properly and it runs the
scan of the folders, even though I did close Outlook properly. Finally, I
sometimes get the message that the extend.dat file didn't initialize.
Outlook seems to work ok nonetheless, but I usually restart just in case, and
the error message does not come up the second time.
Like I said, I don't know if these issues are related, and they don't
necessarily happen at the same time. I have run detect and repair several
times, but this does not correct the errors. Tag: I cant get outlook 2007 to close Tag: 576705

Outlook not properly accepting Hotmail e-mails
Outlook 2002 (10.6838.6839) SP3 in Office XP on XP Pro SP2
Although it is working well in all other areas, I am having trouble trying
to reply to received e-mails sent from Hotmail accounts.
On clicking reply, the program takes a long time to react and then tells me
that it cannot use Word as the editor because it is either busy or cannot be
found .. and will revert to using its own Outlook editor.
Often I will then get various messages about changes to the normal.dot
template and Outlook has to be closed and restarted .. sometimes a reboot is
necessary .. before it will function normally, replying using Word to every
other e-mail apart from the Hotmail account ones.
Can anyone suggest the reason for this please ? Tag: I cant get outlook 2007 to close Tag: 576696
Edit outgoing attachment without saving it
Apparently in Outlook 2000 users could attach a TIF file, open it, annotate
it, save the changes to the document right in the e-mail and send it along.
When they try that in Outlook 2003/2007 they're prompted to save the file to
a location on the hard disk which forces them to re-attach the edited
document and then send it along.
These files are temporary in nature and really only need to exist in e-mail
so saving them to the local machine is a needless step.
Is there any way to get back to the 2000 behavior? Tag: I cant get outlook 2007 to close Tag: 576694
Restore Outlook settings from backup
My hard drive crashed and I have a backup of my outlook files. I brought my
emails in but is there a way to copy over the settings from my backup so that
my rules, options and such are working?
Also is there a way to copy over the memory where when I go to type an email
address it it automatically fills in based on emails I have sent?
Thanks in advance.

Outlook Express 6.0 - deleted in-box messages
All of my email incoming messages from yesterday back 6 1/2 months to
November suddenly disappeared from sight last night. No similar delections
from sent or deleted messages. They don't show up in my delete file. Only
action I took was responding affirmative to O.E.'s frequent "Do you want to
compact messages to provide more space?" Can they be found again? Some may
be saved on my external backup drive, but show up under .dbx file which I
can't open.

attachment reminder for MS Outlook
If the body of an email contains the word 'attachment' or any of it's common
varieties and there is no attachment when the send button is clicked then a
reminder asking if you need to include an attachment before sending the
message would be incredibly helpful and would certainly prevent many of us
from the embarassment of sending emails that referrence nonexistent
attachments.
FWIW, just my 2 cents.

Calendar Screen tips?
I am currently using Outlook 2003. When I set up a meeting and go to the
scheduling tab, some attendees I can hover the mouse over and the attendees
appointments for the day will pop up and you can see their agenda for the
day. With others nothing will pop up even if they are not private items. Is
there some way the individual can toggle this feature on or off or is this
feature controled on the exchange server? Why does it work for some but not
others? Thanks in advance for any helpful info.

Adding Field with unlimited space in Outlook`
Hi,
I have created a merge letter in Word and am extracting information from my
Outlook Contacts for the letter. My question is this:
Is there a way I can create a "new" field with "UNLIMITED" space where I can
enter quite a bit of information i.e., in my case - all specific jobs a
contact has worked on?
I would thenpull information from that "unlimited field" to merge into my
letter in Word.
I tried using "user field" but only have the capability of using 107
characters and I need much more room. We keep a running list of all jobs a
particular contact has been involved in over the years.
I would appreciate any help.

Outlook 2007 Can not change automatic download settings.
I recently upgraded to Office 2007.
In Outlook, when I receive emails that have embedded graphics, the graphics
have the red X through them. I can download the pictures my right clicking
and selecting download or by clicking on the message bar at the top and
selecting download pictures.
However, I would like Outlook to automatically download the pictures. When I
go into trust center and automatic download, "Dont download pictures
automaticall in HTML emails" is checked off AND it is GRAYED out so I can not
change it.
Email security is NOT set to read all emails as plain text.
I created a new Outlook profile and it is the same way in the new profile.
How can I fix this?

View Mail and (Calendar or Contacts) simultaneously
I regularly want to look at my email and either contacts or calendar (a whole
month worth) simultaneously. Can that be done? I have two monitors so plenty
of screen real estate. Even quick switching between the two is highly
inconvenient.
The only way I found is to use Microsoft Virtual PC and have another
instance of XP running with Outlook there but that is also inconvenient.
Is there a simpler way?

Red X in the text box
I have several workstations running both XPsp2 and Vista and all running IE7
that when I open Outlook Web Access and try to reply to an email, I get a red
X in the box where the text would go.
I have read several forums that say it is a security issue, an Exchange
hotfix even missing add-ons but nothing I can find to fix the problem. I have
two machines sitting on my desk and one works fine and teh other has the red
x. I have compared the settings on both machines and can not find anything
glaring obvious.

Outlook 2003 - Notes are hidden from mail folder views
I've recently upgraded from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2003. One thing I
