Re: can't create new appointment MSO 2007

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



After uninstalling MSO2007SP2, the calendar failed. I uninstalled the SP2,
but it didn't work. I thought I was restoring to pre-MSOffice 2007 SP2, but I
was actually restoring to pre 'uninstall' of SP2. Makes no sense at all. But,
it appears that I have SP2. Now Outlook works fine. Go figure!
This is why I opt for PC over Mac, because it keeps me both challenged and
happily clueless.

I uninstalled IE8 to no avail. I've been removing single items at a time on
my PC.
On my laptop I performed a System Restore to 4/25 which removed all the
Office updates. It worked!
The most recent updates are 2007 MSO SP1 and 5 security updates.
When I return later today, I will begin to install one at a time till I find
the culprit.

The other updates went fine. I have been hearing rumblings
on the IE8 though. If I was you I would keep the other, but
maybe start checking into the IE8.

Thank you very much Nikki, but no go. I've also begun to unintall each of
the
2 dozen or so updates that installed yesterday, begining with all the
outlook
updates and including IE8. This is happeng on two computers. I have a
third
that works fine. I will check it to see what the differences are (besides
it
being WinXP).

Could be a forms problem, try the following:

To clean up the forms cache.

To do so, follow these steps:
1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2. Click the Other tab, and then click Advanced Options.
3. Click Custom Forms.
4. Click Manage Forms.
5. Click Clear Cache.
6. Close all open windows, and then restart Outlook.

If the above does not work, try the following.

Deleting the Forms Cache File:
The Frmcache.dat file is the primary file to delete. The Frmcache.dat
file serves as an index of the individual forms that have been cached
on the computer. Use the following steps to manually delete the
Frmcache.dat file. In addition, these steps delete all of the cached
forms on your computer, which are stored in subfolders of the
Forms folder.

1.. Quit Outlook.
2.. Search the Hard drive (<F3>) to locate the Frmcache.dat file.
(Be sure to check in HIDDEN files on W2K or WXP.)
3.. Delete all that are found from the FIND window.
4.. Open Outlook.

When you restart Outlook, and use a form, the forms cache
is re-created.

By the way, Microsoft Outlook Web Access works fine.

Outlook 2007. Can't create a new Appoitment. I can click on a time and
type
in appt, however it disappears when pressing enter. Can click on New
Appt,
but it will not save and close.
Workaround is to copy a nearby appt and typeover new text.
Ran Scanost, no errors. Have all Vista and Office 2007 updates.
Ran Office diagnostics, all ok.
And yes I performed the number one solution to 95% of problems (get
out
of
the car and get back in), to no avail.
