data file did not close properly last time outlook was used

I get the above error message each and everytime I open outlook. Apparently,
when I exit out, things are not shutting down properly. Why is this
happening? When I start, it also appears that a reindexing is happening,
too. Any thoughts?

Thanks again.

After you close Outlook, check with Task Manager (Properties tab) if
Outlook was indeed completely closed. If not, that would indicate that
an add-on may prevent Outlook from closing.

Start Outlook in Safe Mode (Start -> Run -> outlook /safe) and see if
you can close it normally after that.
