I posted this a couple of weeks ago, with no replies.

Outlook crashes every time I try to apply "Automatic Formatting" (specific
label color whenever an entry is of a certain category).

I routinely apply this same type of rule on my otrher machine, with no
problem.

I use Office 2003, with Windowx XP, and all the latrest ûpdates are applied,
including the SP2 update for Office 2003 (Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 Nu
2600).

This problem has occured prior to applying SP2.

Thanks

Mandel
 
Are you using a .PST file? If so, try running the Inbox Repair Tool against
it to see if it finds any errors. Search your drive for a file called
scanpst.exe and run it. Allow the program to make a backup of your file
before it makes any changes.

Thanks Jocelyn.

I had tried this as well. I did re-run Scanpst, and also ran detect and
repair, to no avail.

The next thing you can try is to create a new mail profile via Control Panel
| Mail | Show Profiles.
