Outlook won't open my calendar (it hangs). I have run
scanpst.exe but it doesn't find any errors on the pst
file I think is being used. I'm running XP with multiple
accounts and there are a whole bunch of pst files. How
can I confirm the pst file used by a particular account?
 
Close Outlook. Find and rename outcmd.dat to .old. (If using Windows 2000
or XP, you will need to enable searching hidden and system folders.)

Once you have done so, reopen Outlook and it should open fine. You will
need to rebuild any custom toolbars or customizations as the file outcmd.dat
controls how the toolbars display. When it becomes corrupted, it will cause
Outlook to hang because it cannot create the toolbars that you expect.
