After upgrading OS to Vista Home Premium I get the above message when trying
to send an email from Outlook 2003. Fix?

Search your Windows user profile for a file named extend.dat and delete it.
Then start Outlook. The file will be in a hidden folder, so be sure to
enable viewing hidden files and folders.

Hi Russ,
Thanks for the input. I deleted extend.dat as you suggested, (rebooted) but
still get the the same error message when I try to send an email. If I click
"OK" on the message, the email goes, but that is a hassle for the long term.
Any more ideas?
Aloha....colin

Did you examine your add-ins?

I just now drilled down to add-in Manager and unchecked the 3 boxes that were
checked. I also unchecked Itunes in comm-add-ins. The error DOES NOT
appear now when I send and the email goes ok. Not very intuitive and I never
would have even tried something that esoteric without your help. Many
thanks...Colin
