Outlook 2003 Can't right click in open folder list pane

I'm having a weird problem with Outlook 2003. I see to have lost my
context menus only in the pane that lists the mail in an open folder,
that is, not the preview pane, nor the folder list pane, but that
other one. I tried a repair and tried reinstalling my mouse to no
avail. Any suggestions? I'm using xp pro sp1a on a Dell Inspiron 1100.
Regards,
Steven

Ok, I seem to have solved whatever it was here. I followed the
instructions in the following article and deleted the reg keys I could
find and all of the files mentioned that I could find, reinstalled and
I seem to have right click back up and in business. Hope if this
annoyance is plaguing you, I have brought you relief!!

I was also having the "object not found error" when clicking on mail
links, and this seems to have solved that problem as well. :) Go to

I'm not sure if msizap is of much use. When I uninstalled office 11 it
no longer showed anything in the list. I must have been doing
something wrong there.

Anyhow, isn't it time that there were a complete set of manual
uninstall instructions for office 2003? What I'm finding is that if
something goes wrong when you uninstall and reinstall it just
recreates the problem again. I think where I went wrong was using the
"save my settings wizard" to restore old settings from a windows 2000
box. But to just get it to release those old settings required reg
hacking. You'd think it would all be a bit easier!!!
