On Exchange 2007, upgraded Office 00 to Office 07 (test client, XP sp2).
Outlook startup errors with:
Cannot start Outlook, MAPI32 is corrupt or the wrong version. I restarted.
Renamed MAPI32.DLL MAPI32.BAD, ran Repair on Outlook 2007 in Add/Remove
Programs. Still cannot start Outlook. What's the advice:
1. Is there a fix to try?
2. Uninstall, reinstall?
3. Format C: and start over, the gulf is too wide?
