Outlook Note "Could not complete the operation"

[Klaatu]

Any idea how I fix this...

Using Outlook 2003, whenever I open an existing Note or create a new
one I get the following message when I close Outlook:

"MICROSOFT OFFICE OUTLOOK
Could not complete the operation. One or more parameter values are not
valid."

Click OK, then...

"MICROSOFT OFFICE OUTLOOK
The note will close and your changes will not be saved."

As far as I can tell, the Note does save correctly.
Nevertheless, I'd like to stop these dialog boxes. Thanks.

removing addins from the regestry is the fix I found.

Not sure what addin it is, so make sure to have a backup of you regestry before deleting addins from there just it case.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\

Just because you have no addins in outlook doesn't mean they are not in the regestry.

I hope this helps.
