Outlook 2002 :Cannot display 'From' field

D

Daniel

Hi everybody.

For some reason, I cannot display the 'From' field in the message window of
the Inbox folder.
If I try to add the field by doing Menu Display > Current Display >
Personnalize Display (sorry, I am using the French version of Outlook, and I
don't know what everything translates into the English version), then
clicking on the 'Fields' button and Add field, Oulook stops responding and I
get the usual MS error message, proposing to send an error report to
Microsoft.

I just cannot correlate this problem with anything I could have done. I have
a stable system, I didn't install anything, and, otherwise, Outlook is
working properly.
I tried to 'repair' Outlook, restart, etc. to no avail.

Anybody ?

thank you very much in adavance for your kind help.

With best regards,
Daniel

Hi Robert,

Thank you for your message.

I get the event code '1000'.

Does it mean anything special ?

best regards,
Daniel

Did you kill the process manually? What is being displayed in the details?

You could try resetting your views;
Start-> Run; outlook.exe /cleanviews

Hello Robert.

I just did what you suggested, i.e. resetting the views, and it worked!
Everything is back to normal. I still don't know what happened, but...
Thank you so much for your kind help and time. I really appreciate it.

Best regards,
Daniel

Hello Robert.

You probably didn't get my last message, as I cannot see it in the thread.
That's what I wrote :
