I bought a new laptop with Windows Vista Home Basic o/s. I was able to
install a Microsoft Outlook 2007 on it and it was working nicely. Then I
tried to install Corel Wordperfect 9 on the laptop but the installation
failed with an error message "Borland Database Engine Could not be
installed". After this incidence whenever I try to open my Microsoft Outlook
I get the error message "Borland Database Engine not installed. Can't Load
Address Book." and then Outlook will close on its own. I have uninstalled
the Wordperfect9 program but still get this error message and hence cannot
use the OUtlook. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Microsoft office
2007 but the problem is still there. What can I do to solve this problem. I
cannot read my mails from the laptop and I am desperate. Somebody come to my
rescue please.
 
Locate a file named EXTEND.DAT and either delete or rename it, then try
launching outlook again.

I've also seen reports that creating a new Outlook profile will clear the
error

My problem is that the security certificate is keeping me from getting into
college site for my course that I'm taking. I cannot get in to do my
homework. I don't know what to do.

So you jumped on a thread thats 2 years old.
Not only is the thunderbird problem unrelated to outlook, but the Outlook
problem is unrelated to the Vista group you have posted to
