When you change versions you need a new profile because parts of it are
updated to reference the newer version. If you want to drop back to the
older version of Outlook, you will need to make a new profile if you want it
to work trouble free. Otherwise, you can continue to work in safe mode or
dump outlook in favor of a non-microsoft application. The choice is yours.

Diane,

My original profile is there and it is addressing it. I don't want to
create a new profile and start over.

You want to know what the real issue is? Its me. I'm stupid. I installed
Office 2007 trial version. My next mistake was trying to purchase it
online from Microsoft. I don't even want to try to discribe how bizarre
the whole "experience" was. That is a good buzz word to use, becuase it
is always an experience using Microsoft products, but not usually a good
one.

The problem isn't the profile, it is that this idiot company is out of
control. I know, people on this newsgroup are going to call me a whiny
baby, but I don't understant why. If you bought a car, drove it down the
road and it went out of control and ran into a tree, would you you think
there was a legitimate complaint or would you be a whiny crybaby.
Actually a trainwreck would provide a better analogy.

The solution isn't a new profile, it is booting Bill Gates and his side
kick Steve Balmer out of the company.

Hello Diane,

I don't know what you mean, so I guess I didn't. Will you explain how
to do that? There was nothing in Help about profiles other than speech
recognition profiles.

Thank you and God Bless,

Mark

Hello,

Recenlty I installed Outlook 2007 trial, not knowing that it would
replace my current version Outllook 2002. The new version was locking
up on me so I uninstalled it an reinstalled v2002.

2002 doesn't open but gives me the familiar Microsoft Outlook has
encountered an error and needs to close message. So I need to Send
the error to Microsoft and given an option to open in Safemode.
Safemode works, ok, but I can't save my options.

I uninstalled Office 2007, tried repairing and reinstalling Office
2002, then I uninstalled and uninstalled Outlook2002.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to either fix or troubleshoot
this problem?

Thank you and God Bless,

Mark A. Sam
