Outlook 2003 crashes after Vista SP1 installed

The program worked fine under Vista, but after SP1 was installed it started
crashing. Sometimes it just restarts itself. Other times, I get a widow that
says Out;ook has encoutered a problem and must be closed.

Have you tried Detect and Repair? Look under Help in any Office program.

If that does not work, then try running scanpst.exe against your .pst file.

I had run Detect & Repir. Uninstalled and reinstalled Office to no avail. I
just know ran scanpst which reported only minor problems. I've repaired them
and will see if that solves the problem. Thanks for the suggestion.

An uninstall/reinstall rarely helps or does anything that a detect/repair
doesnt

I just installed outlook 2003 on my laptop (vista with SP1), but downloaded
all available updates for outlook before taking into use. Is working fine
here now. Maybe you just need to run an update on your outlook too?
