Unable to find the WAB DLL

[Guest]

I've a brand new computer running VISTA. Installed Outlook 2000 and I can
receive e-mails but cannot send any. When sending I receive the message, "An
error occurred while attempting to open the windows address book. Unable to
find the WAB DLL". I get the same error when trying to open the address book.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've given up with Outlook and I'm now successfully using windows mail.
Thanks

No I didn't. Sorry. I believe that Outlook 2007 is compatible with VISTA.

Did you ever find an answer to your question? I'm having the same
problem.

where does one get that? I hate M$ but need outlook for my new
smartphone.

The wab.dll has not been used in Outlook since Outlook 2k, which is not
compatible with Vista, though there are work arounds

Hi
The reason why some of you don't get it to work is because OUTLOOK.EXE
process is still running, even though you closed the application. You
have to open the task manager and end the process OUTLOOK.EXE. Then
restart Outlook. Now it should work.
Best regards
