bypass migration in startup outlook 2003
Dear mind reader, Here goes. I opted to detect and repair MS Office 2003
after several attempts to clear 3 recurring appointment reminders that kept popping up. Not having any luck with retaining my current settings, I redid the above opting to reset to default settings. Then the issue occurred. opening Outlook it decided to go through its initiation startup phase of "Migration of settings" etc. The Outlook profile screen appears. I then click open and receive the following error, "unable to open your default e-mail folders. Outlook could not start because a data file to send and receive could not be found. To add a data file, such as a personal folder file, double-click on the mail icon in the windows control panel." There was an error locating one of the items needed to complete this operation. It might have been deleted." After all of the above appeared, I re-installed Microsoft Office complete. But no change. All updates are installed. Operating WinXPPRO sp2 w/all updates. Thank you I did that and followed all of the procedures and could not find any profiles or create any that would allow me to access the Outlook.pst file or any other I have. Also I ran scanpst.exe on my pst file to fix any corruption, still to no avail. When attempting to create a new profile, I receive the following error, " -- gnpmark "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Please post a question using clear syntax.

You thought none of that information might me relevant? You used "Detect and
Repair" to clear reminders? Next time just start Outlook with the /cleanreminders switch. Everything else you have done since then amounts to vivisection. Not sure how you can recover. I don't have the time right now to figure out how to undo the damage you have done. I do hope you back up your data.

What steps did you follow to create the new profile? Try manually configuring everything.

Then if I close the profile creator and go back in the profile name exists but does not show any access to any data files. I did what the manual and all the other KB issues recommend. I have everything backed up, so I am unconcerned about reattaching the .psr files that I need. I guess all I really need is a clean installation. If that means moving all of my pst's or other and un-installing office, then clean installing it so that I don't get hung up trying to initialize outlook, so be it. If that will work.
