I have outlook 2003 on my desktop and notebook, and more than half the time,
whenever I open outlook, I get the message saying that the personal data
folder did not close properly and I have to wait while it checks the file
(which takes forever)... any ideas on why this might be suddenly happening
on both of my machines? Desktop is a frankenstein and notebook is a VAIO..
both running XP Pro
 
Have you checked to make sure that Outlook.EXE is closed fully before
shutting down the machine(s)? Also, are you using the same PST file on both
machines? Just to mention it, MS doesn't recommend using PSTs over a
network.
 
I haven't checked to see if the exe is closed before shutting down the
system.. but should I have to? Anyways, no, I'm not sharing PSTs... they're
unique on each machine.
