Outlook 2003, Windows XP, SP2. Since a while (context unknown) when I
right-click an email in a folder the menu that normally pops up (with options
like open, mark as read, delete, etc.). This Menu doesn't come up any more.

On a another Laptop and on a Desktop (same revision level) it works.I did a
repair of office. No luck.

Looks like this is a know problem (you can search forum for occurence of
"right") but no solution provided yet. Any suggestions, solutions?
Thanks
 
If you close and reopen Outlook, does it work again? How about after a
reboot of Windows?

Hi Milly,

as stated below this is "since a while" That means on a laptop some reboots
and open/close of outlook.exe... and...as stated below I did an office
"repair"

As I can see from the occurence of this error it is KNOWN and I would be
glad to get an answer other than reboot and reinstall.....

Best regards
ChrisS

I had this the other day. I removed the profile (My Computer -> properties
-> Advanced -> User Profiles -> Settings). You should backup the profile
before you delete or you'll lose all your stuff (pst, favourites, address
book). Login an recreate the profile.

Good luck!
