That error has nothing to do with the autoexe file used by windows xp -
while windows doesn't use it, it remains for backwards compatibility
reasons (and both it and config.sys are present in a clean install of
windows xp).
The original poster needs to see

solution to his/her problem.

Delete autoexec.bat. XP doesn't use it or config.sys. You
must have not done a clean install of Win XP. You should
do a clean install.

After reinstalling XP Pro and then Outlook 2003, whenever I exit Outlook, I
get the error message "Microsoft Virtual Basic-compile error in hidden
module: Autoexec"
I've checked my autoexec and of course, can't find anything wrong.
How can I stop this error from happening?
TIA
