Anyone heard of this problem?
Outlook 2000 intermittently hangs when inserting attachments from the file
open dialog when searching network drives.
It only happens in a particular folder on a windows 2000 server share. It's
got some 121 folders in the location and, if OL decides to hang, will do so
at the same point each time - as if Outlook is trying to refresh the screen
just before you go and choose your file to insert.
This is the same version of Oulook on all other machines in the business and
no others appear to have this problem. It's been reinstalled etc. etc. No
other network shares are a problem. Local drives do not cause the problem.
I can't see it being a corrupt file/folder - it's too random. It happens
about 1 time in 3 on average. There just doesn't seem to be a consistent
pattern that I can find!
Thanks,
