Operation Failed When Trying To Create Event?
Hello,
I recently have been getting a "Operation Failed" whenever I try to create any type of calendar event. I double click on the time and get the error message. I have also tried right clicking and selecting New Event but still get the error message. Something else that may or may not have anything to do with this: At about the same time this started happening, I lost the ability to right click on any email. I went to reply to an email by right clicking and selecting REPLY but couldn't even get the right click menu to open up. Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. |

Operation Failed When Trying To Create Event?
First thing I would try is to clean up the forms cache.
To do so, follow these steps: 1. On the Tools menu, click Options. 2. Click the Other tab, and then click Advanced Options. 3. Click Custom Forms. 4. Click Manage Forms. 5. Click Clear Cache. 6. Close all open windows, and then restart Outlook 2003. If the above does not work, try the following. Deleting the Forms Cache File: The Frmcache.dat file is the primary file to delete. The Frmcache.dat file serves as an index of the individual forms that have been cached on the computer. Use the following steps to manually delete the Frmcache.dat file. In addition, these steps delete all of the cached forms on your computer, which are stored in subfolders of the Forms folder. 1.. Quit Outlook. 2.. Search the Hard drive (F3) to locate the Frmcache.dat file. (Be sure to check in HIDDEN files on W2K or WXP.) 3.. Delete all that are found from the FIND window. 4.. Open Outlook. When you restart Outlook, and use a form, the forms cache is re-created. Nikki Peterson "Andres Galdames" wrote in message oups.com...

File Folder Properties for Calendar General 'uncheck the box for: Automatically generate MS Exchange views. Hope it works for you! On Mar 10, 6:37 pm, wrote: I have same problem.

I had the same problem with outlook 2003 and what I ended up finding out was that a google addin was the problem. I disabled it from outlook by going to options other advanced options add in manager. Hope that works for you, good luck!
