Corrupt Outlook 2007 Data

Even though it is relatively small, my data is corrupted and if I am able to
get into Outlook it is only using safe mode. Most if the time, I am unable
to get in even if I get a message saying that Outlook did not close correctly
and the data is being fixed. Only rarely does the safe mode dialog box pop
up.

This happened in Outlook 2003 when I had a big database, and I would fix it
using ScanPST.exe. Since I installed PS1 that doesn't work. When I try to
run ScanPST.exe I get a dialog box saying ScanPST.exe cannot work because
"This application has failed to start because OLMAP32.dll was not found.
Re-installing the application may fix this probelm." Then I get a message
saying " Microsoft Personal Folders Scan/Repair Utility has stopped working.
A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will
close the program and notify you if a solution is available."

The main reason I migrated to 2007 was because I was told by MS support that
it would work with larger databases. I've shrunk my database substantially
and had no problems with the conversion. Since I've loaded SP1 I've had
nothing but serious problems.

Please help.

Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 both have identical size limitations: 20GB by
default for Personal Folder files. Changing from OL 2003 to OL 2007 does
not allow you to access larger PSTs.

Did you try Help>Office Diagnostics? What's "PS1"? Do you mean "SP1"? Is
that Office 2007 SP1 or Windows Vista SP1? Have you tried reregistering the
DLL? How large is your PST? Is the PST an ANSI or a Unicode PST?
