Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook

[Juice]

"Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook. MAPI32.dll is corrupt or the wrong
version. This could have been caused by installing other messaging software.
Please reinstall Outlook."

Thats the error I get everytime I start the Office Outlook application. I am
running Microsoft Office 2003 on WIndows Vista Enterprise.

N.B. The other Microsoft Office applications are running smoothly. Someone
Help.

Try renaming that DLL and restarting Outlook. It should rebuild it.

I can't rename the DLL due to security settings thereof. Or is there a way I
can change that...

I found the solution, the DLL file to be renamed can be in the C:\Program
Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033 and the name of the DLL is MSMAP32.dll.
And as Brian had mentioned (credit must be given to the guy) Outlook will
recreate the file once you restart it.

Thanks for the help Brian.
