Joe – in answer:

Is your Office installation up to date with patches? Yes!
Have you checked the event log? No, how do I do that?
Can you post the exact text of the message you are seeing? There is no message – OL just closes itself.
Have you customized the Outlook today page? No – all I did before the problem started is clear old messages out of their folders, then permanently delete them from the ‘deleted’ folder.

Phil.

I have looked in the registry and have the same entries as you.
I didn’t remove any folders when I had a clean out, merely deleted the messages in them

Hmm.. still no sucess

Sorry, screen 3 is wrong. It should be this one:

Edited by HansV to reduce screenshot in size

Thanks for your prompt reply.

No, I have tried this. I have attached some screenshots to demonstrate.
Screen 1 is the view I want (and got before moving the file)
Screen 2 is the view that your suggestion gives me
Screen 3 is the view that I get after moving the file.
Surely there is some way of making the last view ‘sticky’?

Regards,

Phil.

Excellent!
Thanks for your suggestions.

Phil.

Sorted – thanks for that.
Why can’t upgrades be more consistent in their layouts?

Editing web locally on C drive. Not a new problem, just really starting to get me down.

Most greatful to you, Leif.

It was the WWW_OpenURL setting that was missing.
All works again.

Thanks again (I love this forum!)

Phil

OK Thanks for that, Leif.
I have done that. Now, after clicking a URL in OL, IE6 opens and goes to that address. Great.
However, on clicking subsequent links, the opened IE6 window becomes the focus, but does not change content to the new URL, which was previously how it worked.

Phil.

BRILLIANT!!!!
The adjust dates macro did exactly what I wanted – so simple, and I didn’t even know it was there.

Thanks again (and again) – I’m very happy!!

Tried this, James – everything was as it should be. In utter defeat, I simply re-installed IE5.5

Voila – all functionality restored. I used to be a big fan of Netscape , but I think they’ve finally lost the browser war. RIP.

Have now uninstalled NS6 and problem remains. This happens in any app. that had clickable links – e.g. Word, Agent, etc.
Any ideas how I can regain this functionality?

Phil

Tried that already, Phil. It doesn’t work.
All in all, I like Netscape 6, but I did keep v4.7 just in case!. It just seems a shame to take a step back, and I’m not sure if NS6 is the cause anyway.
