We have a user who receives this warning when moving items
from one Outlook 2000 folder to another existing folder
(i.e. - selecting multiple deleted items and moving all
items to Personal folder):

"Creating a new item from the selected items could take
some time. Are you sure you want to create a new item
from these 62 items?"

Of course the amount changes depending on how many folder
items he's selected. Thanks for any help you can give.
 
Are the two folders of different types? In other words, is one a mail
folder and one a task folder? If so, when you drag an item from one folder
to another type of folder, you're invoking a process called AutoCreate. This
creates a task item from a mail item (or a calendar item from a task item,
etc). So your user is actually creating new items rather than moving an
item.
