Re: outlook operator error!

You have posted to a newsgroup that is mainly dedicated to supporting
the Windows Mail program. Outlook issues are best handled in the
Outlook newsgroup where the Outlook experts hang out:
microsoft.public.outlook.general .

Re: outlook operator error!

It sounds like the connection between the Outlook profile and your data file
was reset. These articles will tell you where the data file is and how to
re-connect it to Outlook
