Outlook Express in XP

[Guest]

When opening OE I get a message saying "The address book failed to load.
Outlook Express is incorrectly configured, please reinstall." A second
message says "Unable to open the address book. The address book may not be
installed properly."

I've ran "detect and repair" but this has not corrected the problem. Thanks
for any help.

This is a group to support Outlook from the Office group of programs.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and is a quite different
program despite its similar name..

You will probably get a faster and more expert answer if you post this to an
outlook express news group.

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
