Outlook 2003 Inserting Attachments

[Matt]

Hi

I have a problem inserting attachments into email. I have
been using the Insert (Paperclip) icon to insert files
and pictures into emails with no problem until now.

When I click on the icon, it will go to the folder for me
to insert the file, but then Outlook/Word hangs and will
not respond.

I can however, drag and drop files into emails to make
them attachments with no problems.

I have tried re-installing the Office 2003 Suite with no
luck.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Nevermind - try starting Outlook with the ResetOutlookBar switch.

start->run->outlook.exe /resetoutlookbar (notice the space between the .exe
and /)
