"The operation failed" message when restarting Outlook 2003
My father has Windows XP with Outlook 2003. I'm not sure how long it's been
happening, but when he re-opens Outlook the immediate response is a 'The operation failed' message. However, so far, it HAS re-started on the 2nd or 3rd attempt. I have tried: detect & repair; creating a new profile; repairing his pst file ... to no avail. Can anyone think of any other solutions before thiis drive us mad?

"The operation failed" message when restarting Outlook 2003
.... update: since posting, I have also tried: reinstalling Outlook (though
NOT uninstalling/reinstalling ... as yet); renaming extend.dat and outcmd.dat to *.old ... Again, to no avail. "JJ Lothin" wrote: My father has Windows XP with Outlook 2003.
