OUTLOOK EXPRESS HAS LOCKED DUE TO COMPACTING?

[Guest]

For some reason, Outlook Express asked me if I wanted to compact the files to
save space, and now, the message comes up every, single time I close OE, and
then after I select either cancel or OK, it locks up OE and I have to turn
off the computer in order to open OE again.

Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thank you!

Try posting this in an Outlook Express news group - this is not one of them.
Outlook is a part of Microsoft Office and is what this group supports.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and has its own news groups.

You can also find some good Outlook Express information here:
