Out of memory error

[msnews.microsoft.com]

Hello all, I have a problem with Outlook 2003 on Win XP SP2, all service
packs and Office updates.
When I am trying to insert attachment to email message (new or reply to
received) in RTF format, I receive an error "Out of memory or system
resources. Close ...".
1,5 GB RAM in my notebook and no other applications running in the same
time. 2GB of free space on my C: drive.
When I switch the message format to Plain Text, I am able to insert an
attachment. When I switch then back to RTF format, the error is displayed
again.

Any suggestions?
Thanks.

See if clearing the Office Clipboard fixes the problem.

Using PGP?

Regardless of how much physical RAM you have installed, check Task
Manager's Performance tab to see how much you really have free.

You receive a run-time error when you run VBA macro that contains the
HTMLDocument property in Outlook 2003

I don't do VBA so I don't know how you identify that a VBA macro is
executing. Maybe you need to look for rules that have the "custom
action" clause, or look in add-on (Tools -> Options -> Other ->
Advanced).

I am not using PGP.

In Task Manager a lot of memory available (above 1GB).

No VBA macros in my emails or other items

I have to switch message format to Plain text prior to insert attachment and
then, optionally switch back to HTML.

Have you tried Detect and Repair (under the Help menu)?
