Microsoft Outlook 2003 Error message

Hi,

This error occurs when you have checked any checkbox in the compatibility tab. You need to uncheck all the checkboxes to solve this error.
Compatibility of the outlook on your computer might be set to Windows 95 or some others windows, please uncheck the windows check box. After unchecking the check box outlook will automatically set itself to the windows that has been installed on your computer.
First browse to the Microsoft Office 2003 installation folder i.e. typically C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11 and right-click the actual Outlook executable (OUTLOOK.exe).
Select "Properties" and then click the "Compatibility" tab. make sure everything is unchecked and the application is running normally.

Cheers,

Robert.
