1) Navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033 and locate
the file "MSMAPI32.DLL". Or do a search for this file instead. Note that you
do not rename mapi32.dll itself but msmapi32.dll.

2) Rename this file to MSMAPI32.OLD.

3) Start Outlook 2003. It should rebuild MSMAPI32.DLL

I'm running Vista 64 bit version and Outlook 2007 for several months now.
Today, I received MAP132.dll is corrupt or wrong version. So I found this
thread on the matter. I located the file "msmapi32.dll" and renamed it
msmapi32.old. Then, I started Outlook 2007 and received the same msg. There
was another file "msmapi32.dll_0001_1033" so I renamed that as well to
____.old_0001_1033 and started Outlook 2007 again to no avail.

Do you have any ideas?

I look forward to any comments on the matter. - Fran - frwnny
