I have been using outlook 2003 for long time. Recently, I couldn't open
outlook. Every time, I clicked on outlook icon, hourglass appeared for 15
seconds and disappeared.
Only way, I can open the outlook is after reboot the computer. When I open
outlook after reboot, there is warning sign showing that outlook was not
closed properly last time, need to open in safe mode. I do as windows said.
you can use outlook for one time only. After I closed outlook, I couldn't
open again without reboot again. It's annoying. Please help.
 
Try doing a scan of your pst file.....


"scanpst.exe" is located in:

"C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033\SCANPST.EXE"

double click on Scanpst.exe and it will ask you to select your Outlook.pst
file



To find Outlook.pst file...................................

from OUTLOOK , click on File, Data File Management

Then click on Personal Folders (I have 2, one is the Outlook backup file) -
it should say 'Mail Delivery' in the Comments column.

Now click on Settings

On this next screen it will show you the Filename of your Outlook.pst file -
use the forward arrow to see the complete file name.



for example, my file is called

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst
