Outlook 2007:Error message for tasks in Calendar View

Hi there,

I recently upgraded from Outlook 2003 to 2007. So far I have only
found one
glitch in the upgrade: in Calendar View I have activated the To-Do Bar
and
within that have checked the option for Task List. Rather than showing
my
tasks there is an error message in the same place reading "The
operation
failed. An object could not be found." That same message is also below
the
Calendar itself in a section which--I'm assuming--is supposed to show
the
tasks also.

I ran Office Diagnostics to no avail. When I go into Task View and
click on
To-Do List under My Tasks the main screen reads "Cannot display the
folder"
however when I click on "Tasks" (which is just below "To-Do List"
under My
Tasks) I see all my tasks there.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
David
 
First, I would run scanpst.exe against my .pst file. If that did not work, I would create a new mail profile. Upgrading in place is not the most reliable for retaining the profile's integrity.

Hi Milly,

I ran scanpst but that didn't solve it. If I try to creat a new mail
file how do I get all my contacts, appointments, etc. to come over
without importing the the glitch that's causing the original problem.

Thanks,
David
 
YOu don't import - EVER. You simply configure the new profile to use your original .pst file.
