Hello,

When using the find feature in outlook 2003 it will find the email(s)
according to the criteria (like from). However in the preview pane it
says "cannot preview the message" and when opening it says "cannot
open the item". This is only an intermittent problem most times it
works just fine. When this happens closing and reopening outlook seems
to fix the problem. I'm using outlook 2003 on an exchange server. I
have tried a "detect and repair", renaming the OST, and building a new
outlook profile. This is not the advanced search or search folders.
Any Ideas would be appriciated.

this may be caused your unstable network connection. When offlining, you got
the "cannot preview the message" and when opening it says "cannot
open the item. After restarting the Outlook, it re-connect the Exchange
Server and everything is correct.

suggestion 1: Monitor your Outlook and make sure it kept online with
exchange
suggestions 2: check spyware/viruses
suggsetion 3: upgrade your Outlook and innstall the udpates
