New disk message with outlook startup

There is no disk in the drive.Please insert a disk into >
drive\Device\Harddisk3\DR6

I have suddenly started to receive this message. Pressing continue, the
message appears three times and Outlook seems to operate normally. How can I
get back to that blissful state when it just worked without this additional
detritus?

Try creating a new mail profile with the mail applet in the control panel.
(don't copy the existing, create a new one and switch to it to see if error
stops. If it does, then delete the old one as it just means you have a bad
pointer to some file that existed on a drive/partition that is no longer
present.)

Do you mean that I should create a new mail 'account'? I don't quite understand your terminology. Yesterday I deleted Office and re-introduced it. Re-trying Outlook I did not get the message but when I lodade up today it was there. I closed the program and then reloaded it and the message did not appear.

I am using Office 2003 on a Windows 7 base

I am also getting a translation error:

A file error has occurred in the Comms Sperated Values (windows) translator
when opening a file for tramslation Unexpected error (21)
