Default Outlook 2K crashes in Vista when importing .SCD files.

I'm having a compatibility issue with Outlook 2K and importing old schedule
plus files. I have an office that uses this just for a master schedule and
it's normally imported and synced with a Blackberry. This works fine under XP
with all the patches and service packs but causes an app crash in Vista with
the same file. All else is fine in outlook, any suggestions on where to start
on a resolution are appreciated.

Brian,
Thanks, I haven't found a large list of apps that are but I'm wondering if
there's a workaround or if the cause is something that can be fixed
temporarily until SP1 or ?

Outlook 2000 will never be truly compatible with Vista, but there is a
report that copying the wab32.dll and wab32res.dll from their usual
%CommonProgramFiles%\system location to
%SystemRoot%\system32 can allow it to work. You may need to register those
DLLs after placing them. There is also a report that Outlook 2000 will work
on Vista if you do not use it for mail.
