What causes Outlook to shutdown whenever I minimize it?

[Guest]

About a month ago I noticed that when I minimize Outlook, the program
completely shuts down. I've tried all I know to do short of completely
reinstalling the program to correct this problem. I don't recall this
occuring before I downloaded either a Windows or a Office 2003 Update but I
don't recall which, I just do thime routinely. Has anyone experienced
anything similar to this? Thanks.

I doubt it is shutting down.
Look at your system tray. If you set it to minimize to the system tray,
that's what it will do.

Russ - Thanks! It also really does help to ensure that "Hide When Minimized"
isn't checked in the system tray. It's hard to believe all the time I've
spent woking on this problem off and on over the last few weeks. Thanks so
much for taking the time to get me pointed in the right direction.
