Actually, one more bit of information. In the Program Files/Common Files,
etc. place, there are now 2 files - MSMAPI32.dll and MSMAPI32.dll.old - both
dated 11/10/05. So a new one was created after I renamed the original
(although I don't understand why the create date didn't change). I then
tried deleting the one named .old, and again renaming the other one by adding
..old, and then re-running the Office 2003 Repair. There is still a file
without the .old suffix.
