Cannot add appointment into Outlook Calendar
 
Within the last week, when trying to add a new appointment to my calender, I
get an error message that reads: "Could not complete the operation. One or
more parameter values are not valid." I have tried to do some searching for
what that message means, and what to do to fix it, with no luck. As far as I
know all my other Outlook 2003 functions are working.

Have you shutdown Outlook and rebooted Windows?

Not sure. I went to the outlook help menu and activated the Detect and Repair
function, which required that I close out of outlook, and reboot Microsoft
Office 2003. One occasion (I have tried this option 3 times) it asked me to
insert the program disk. If this is not what you mean, would you mind giving
me step by step instructions. Thank you so mucjh for your time.

Simply close Outlook (File-Exit) and then shutdown Windows (Start-Shutdown-Select Restart from the dropdown-Okay)

I'm stuck with the same issue - have you found a fix yet?

A number of similar posts on this forum seem to have gone unanswered... apart from the standard clear cache/pc reboot suggestions!

Same issue as what? If you have something to add to an existing issue thread, post a reply to that thread.
