Reinstalling Office 2003
Correct--I get an error message when I click on File/ Import-Export.
I didn't do a complete removal of Office--I just used the wizard in Add-Remove programs to make installation adjustments with a few Office apps (Including Outlook). I am wondering if a complete reinstall of the whole Office program is in order. -- Regards "ernie" wrote: Just to be absolutely clear, the Import/Export Wizard does not appear, but the error message box does, when you click Import/Export on the File menu? I assume, from your subject line, that you have done a complete reinstall of Office 2003. I am out of ideas, but you *might* get an answer from a search of the MS Knowledge Base rather than Google. Good luck, ern. "rustyfender04" wrote in message news Hi Ernie, I guess I need to start from the beginning. I installed Office 2003 about 2 to 3 months ago, but my system resources could not quite handle Outlook, so I uninstalled it for the time being, until I could get more ram. But before I uninstalled it, I had imported my contacts from OE6 (.csv format--This was stored on a USB drive) into Outlook. After deciding to uninstall Outlook, I decided to delete the .pst (?) folder that had been created, and thus deleting my contacts with it. Finally, after installing more ram this week, I reinstalled Outlook. But now I when I click on "File" / "Import and Export"--I get the error message. I've tried a repair install a couple of times, but it has been of no help. -- Regards "ernie" wrote: When does the error message arise during the Import/Export process? Give more detail, have you exported the Windows Address Book (that is part of OE6)? What format did you choose? ern. "rustyfender04" wrote in message ... Correction, I can add contacts to Outlook's address book.It's just that I cannot import them from Outlook Express 6. In fact, I cannot use the Import and Export wizard at all in Outlook 2003. It keeps giving me the same old error message -"Internal Translation System Error". I have tried Google, Dog pile, etc, and cannot find anything related to this error message. I'm paving new ground here I reckon. : -( -- Regards "rustyfender04" wrote: So far I cannot even add anything to the contacts list...The contacts folder cannot be opened. -- Regards "rustyfender04" wrote: I will have to research your answer, since I'm fairly new to Outlook. The first time I installed Outlook, I was able to import my address book from OE6...Why the error now? -- Regards "Brian Tillman" wrote: rustyfender04 wrote: I cannot use the Import, Export function (I am getting an error message that says--"Internal Translation System Error"). To what and from what do you wish to export? Nor can I add contacts to the address book. You don't add contacts to the address book. You add them to a Contacts folder. The address book contains no information. -- Brian Tillman |
