I don't know Russ but I believe that your comment about him is uncalled for.
He was trying to help you and if his advise was not correct in this case,
that is unfortunate. He and many other people spend a lot of time in these
newsgroups trying to help people like you and me. I always want someone to
try to help me.

I had the same trouble and spent 2 days trying to figure it out and was
even
on the phone with tech support and they could not figure it out...i
deleted
the "outlookaddins" and it worked...thanks Adam for your follow up...pure
genious.
Does anyone think there will be any reprecussions to this?
I too am a novice and would never be able to write or think as an expert.

I have finally managed to resolve the same excruciating problem - after
syncing with my PDA, also using outlook 2002 with vista on a new
laptop-
thanks to you.
I have been trolling through these threads for almost a week and I was
getting desperate. I had managed to install and reinstall successfully,
again
to no avail.
I haven't spent much time on these threads before and I am quite
startled
how unpleasant people can be, I'm not a complete novice and I just
followed
sequential instructions from microsoft and also failed to get the
appropriate
help in the all the guides etc when it went pear shaped- I also didn't
see
any warnings.
Thank you so much for your post

The problem is resolved; Many thanks to all for their suggestions and
advice.
For those that are interested, some further details on my steps to
resolution are below.
The key issue was that the warning message, having originally come up
during
the import of the contacts (from a PST file) was appearing again
every time I
opened Outlook. After some basic steps to counter the warning, I
gave up and
tried to uninstall and reinstall Outlook. This proved a lot harder
than it
looked; as Brian & Nikki pointed out, the Uninstall didn't remove the
profile, so after every uninstall & reinstall, Outlook would restart
with all
the same settings and most importantly, with the perpetual warning
message
reoccurring. So even removing the application and starting again,
didnt get
round the problem!
I tried the Express ClickYes app, and with it running starting
outlook
didn't cause the warning message to appear BUT Outlook did
immediately crash.
However, the detail provided under the Vista "Stopped Working"
message did
advise that the module involved was OutlookAddinSetup, which after
some
investigation turned out to be a Creative add-in installed as part of
the
original Dell OS image. I uninstalled the OutlookAddin from Control
Panel,
and Outlook started fine with ClickYes running. Since then, I've
disabled
and uninstalled ClickYes and Outlook still starts up fine. I think,
as I
always thought, that I just needed to get pst the warning for it to
sort
itself out.
Russ, my reference to Mailbox was probably misterminology due to the
label
on the folder list, which by default is [Mailbox - username]. What I
was
originally trying to import was my old default outlook.pst file.
Sorry if
the inexpert terminology caused confusion.
Nikki, thanks for your advice, it looks like I worked around it in
the end
without having to hunt down and delete all the files...
And Karl, thanks for the link, useful information.
Cheers all

You posted in a thread that is long expired in most news readers.
You failed to quote any portion of the post that would support your claim.
You posted an insult but no constructive criticism.
You misdirected that insult.
You seem to be one clever fellow.
