I am runing Microsoft Office Professional 2003 on Vista Home Premium. all
programs work perfectly (including Outlook) except every time I close
Outlook I get the following message.

Microsoft Office Outlook has stopped working.
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
Close
Program.

When I click on Close Program, the error box goes away. Other than the
error message upon closing Outlook, the program works fine.

I deleted and reinstalled the program twice but the error message still
appears upon closing the program.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Have you tried running Detect and Repair? Help-Detect and Repair.

Yes, i ran Detect and Repair twice and uninstalled and reinstalled the
program once. Nothing seems to stop the Error message when I close the
program. The strange thing is that the program works perfectly except for the
Error message i get when i close the program.

Any other thoughts?

Have not had a response yet to my request re Outlook closing itself. Thought
I'd add, however, that I've tried repair and delete and re-install from the
CD. I tried Milly's suggestion but Outlook closes while it's still loading
the detect and repair process. Also it was unable to find the proper program
on the Office CD.

Thanks.

You can run Detect and Repair from any Office program plus Control Panel-Add/Remove Programs-Microsoft Office-Change-Repair.

I use Vista Ultimate 32 with Office 2007. For the past few weeks I have been
getting this error, "Microsoft Office Outlook has stopped working."Then
whenever I relaunched Outlook, I got the pop up that said that it was
checking the PST file for errors because it was not closed properly. I used
the command line option /cleanviews and that still didn't help.

After much experimentation, I found a way to prevent this from happening to
me:

I had Outlook 2007 configured to empty the deleted items folder
automatically when it exits. When I turned this feature off and deleted these
items manually before I exited Outlook, when I did exit, there was no error
message. It works that way for me every time.

If you have Outlook configured this way and you would like to try this to
see if this solves this problem, do the following:

To enable/disable this feature, in Outlook, click Tools/Options then click
the Other tab. Remove the check from the box "Empty the Deleted Items Folder
When Exiting." Now click Apply then OK.

I hope you have as much success with this as I have.

I have a problem similar to Jack's but rather disastrous: I get the same
error message, but Outlook closes. It stays open less than a minute, so I
can't get any work done. I tried an "important" update and that did not help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the two replies. I'll try both.

I have exactly the same problem as Jack - an error message as I close down
although the program works perfectly.

I am also using Vista Home Premium but with Outlook 2007

Help would be appreciated
