Outlook 2003 Professional doesn't close.

[Guest]

Every time I close Outlook, I get the following message
when I click on the icon in the task bar.

"Outlook is not responding. If you are using an Exchange
server e-mail account, you can cancel pending server
requests by clicking the Outlook icon in the
notifications area, and then clicking Cancel Server
Request on the shortcut menu."

Anyone have any idea what this is relating to? I'm on
WinXP Pro, using Office 2002 pro. My ISP is running a
Windows 2003 Server.

Thanks.

Common causes for Outlook remaining active is a PDA that is docked or Fax
software, especially WinFax. Also Franklin-Covey Plan Plus! is a known
culprit as well.

Thanks for responding Milly...
I don't have a PDA. I do have Winfax but it is not active
or loading in the background. I only activate it when I
need it and none of their files are in memory. No
Franklin either.
Any other ideas?
I appreciate your help.

Those aren't the only programs that may keep OL open. Try stopping each app
in turn until you find the one that allows OL to close.
