Error messgae trying to open Outlook 2003

R

rowzei

I have just got a blackberry and am trying to set up outlook to use with it.
I have had my computer 5 years, but have never tried to use outlook before.
When I click on it, I get the following error message

"The extension configuration file c:\Program Files\microsoft
office\office\addins\fldpub.ecf could not be installed. There is an error in
the syntex or format of the file"

This is then followed by

"Unable to alter your defualt email folders. Create a new profile, make it
your default by selecting it, and then clicking Always use this Profile".

When I try to open the 'mail' option in control panel I am told "you need
more memory and system resources. try closing some windows and try again".

How do I set it up so I can use outlook? I'm sorry if there is a simple
answer to this question!

Someone must have used/setup Outlook, before for this to happen
If you have the Office cd run a repair

Close all programs, reboot, and immediately try the Control Panel->Mail
Icon->Profiles option. Set your Outlook profile configured to use your ISP
POP3 mail settings (check with the ISP for the server settings).
