MS Outlook Problem - Page 2

The whole email application comes forward, not just a notification. Outlook becomes the active window over all other applications.

I gotya now....have you tried a detect and repair?

....um, no. Perhaps that would be my next step.
Does that come installed with MSOL 2002 or is it a download from MS? I only ask because I had another system's OL go down for a different reason and when I tried to run the inbox repair tool it was a d/l and after eventually getting it installed - it didn't work and I had to uninstall the whole program. (It has been a frustrating week concerning OL here....)

Thanks ever so much, I'll give it a try.
I've never posted on here before but am really impressed with everyone who has been so speedy in trying to help me - I really appreciate it. Thank you.

you gonna do it now? It only take a minute or two

Thanks again for everyone's help on this. I found the problem and it turned out to be a synchonization problem between outlook and spam inspector which was pushed out of joint by the security patch that was installed last week. Still have no idea why the other computers weren't affected in the same way but it's fixed so I'm happy
