Hi Mark

This means that Outlook's classes are not registered correctly with Windows.

Please run our Class Check Utility and let me know what results you get:

Hi

Yes, we have seen this issue with Outlook 2003 before where it fails to create the base class Outlook.Application.

Unfortunately the Fix Utility does not have sufficient rights to modify the registry.

Try copying it to your desktop, then right-click it and select "Run as Administrator"

To do this, follow these steps:
Open the Control Panel.
Click Programs and Features.
Locate the entry for your Microsoft Office installation and select it.
Click Change.
Select Repair from the resulting window.
Click Continue.
Allow the repair to complete.
Reboot your computer.
