Please log in for more thread options Chris,
The first thing I did was read your FAQ page (fantastic btw!).
All items give the error, immediately.... I can delete the partnership and
recreate one... within 2 seconds all items say 'attention required' - but
again, the other user on the same PC works perfectly every time!
I already tried ALL suggestions I have read in newsgroup and web site posts
going back 2 years... including:
a) creating a new PST
b) running Outlook 2003, Help | Detect and Repair...
c) running scanpst.exe
There must be a better way to troubleshoot this. It is pittiful that after
all these years AS does not have a better way to log/debug.
To anyone on the MS team developing this app... shame on you for not making
it easier to troubleshoot!
btw.. I'm not just spouting off, I worked at MS for 5 years. I know first
hand what they CAN do, but do not.
