We're running an Exchange 2003 Server with Outlook 2007 clients. One of the users does not have the Out of Office assistant on their Tools menu. If I access his account via webmail, I can set his out of office message and status there, but would still love to know why it might be missing and how to get it back on the tools menu
I'm using a startup script to deploy Microsoft Office 2007 Standard. It's not working quite right and I'm trying to find logging information for it. Unfortunately, no log is being generated by setup. I've tried configuring the log at %temp%\, C:\, %systemroot%\temp and leaving it at defaults, all to no avail. Nothing is showing up in the event logs, either. Is there anywhere else I can go to look for information on what's going on with the installer?
I am installing Exchange Server2007 SP1 Management Tools on Windows XP SP3 and every time I get the error:
The event log file is full
I have tried clearing out the log files and everything, but this continues to happen - any ideas?
I just upgraded a Vista machine to Windows 7. The machine is running Outlook 2007 SP2 with the KB970944 performance hot fix.
Now, syncing to the Exchange server can take 20 minutes, whereas it was very fast before the Windows 7 upgrade. I believe we're running Exchange 2003, but I'm not 100% sure.
Anyone else seeing this? Any fixes yet?
My organisation has Exchange 2007 e-mail server, and now, we want to host e-mail service for other organisation (neworg.com)
I added new Authoritative Active Domain neworg.com, but when adding a new mailbox, there is no option to chose new SMTP domain name neworg.com, and I can't add new user with SMTP domain [email protected].
Probably I misunderstood something while reading posts on Internet, but can someone help please?
I'm having this issue on several server environments.
We have a list at the site collection root. There is a site column created as a multi-value lookup on that list's Title field. This site column is used in document libraries in subsites as a required field. When we upload anything but an Office 2007 document, the user is presented with the document metadata fill-in screen (EditForm.aspx?Mode=Upload), the user fills in the appropriate data (including picking a value(s) for this lookup), and clicks "check in" - the document is checked in as expected, with the lookup field's value filled in.
With an Office 2007 document, this fails. The user selected values for the lookup field do not ever make it to the server - no errors are thrown, but the field is not saved with the document. We have an event listener on these document libraries, and if we inspect the incoming SPListItem on the event listener method before a single line of our code has run, we see that the value for the lookup field is null.
It smells like a SharePoint bug to me - but before I go calling Microsoft, has anyone seen this & worked around it?
Edit: the only entry I see in the SP trace logs relating to the problem:
CMS/Publishing/8ztg/Medium/Got List Item Version, but item was null
I have an account with on Yahoo! Mail, another on Gmail. In Outlook 2007, I've set them up so that I can access them without having to go to their websites.
I've password protected my personal folder, but can't find a way to merge my accounts into one personal folder.
When I want to switch between my accounts, I must type my password again. Besides that, I can't check for new mail messages in both accounts at the same time.
How do I merge multiple email accounts into one single personal folder on Outlook 2007?
In Outlook 2007, the Archiving options are very forbidding. I DONT want Outllok to Auto Archive, I prefer to do it manually.
Having said that, I want Outlook to ARCHIVE only a selected set of folders. In older version, unchecking the "include in auto arhive" option excludes these folders. Unfortunately 2007 makes life more complicated.
A. Can someone help me how to exclude a set of sub-folders from archiving while doing a manual archiving.
B. Is there a way I can use Macros to archive folders, this will solve all my problems.
I have been asked by a Client to refresh one of their Machines.
To do this i managed to get Windows XP Setup to run in Repair mode, and while in setup i ran a serial key grabber, which grabbed the key for Office 2007
The only thing is that the key grabber didnt tell me what edition of Office 2007 was installed.
I have aqquired a number of ISO's for the different editions (Home & Student, Standard, Professional, Ultimate) but the key doesnt work in any of them.
Is there a way to get the edition from the Serial Key, or is there a generic ISO that will install any edition depending on the Serial Key?
I'm trying to move an Outlook 2007 account (POP3, no Exchange) to a new machine and I'm having trouble importing the rules from the old machine to the new one.
Here is the deal, I imported the .pst file on the new machine but when I try to import the rules, every single one of them brakes. The folders and sub-folders hierarchy is preserved upon the import of the .pst but the rules don't point to the right folder in the respective rule. Instead it points to "the specified folder".
Same OS (Windows XP), same mail client (Outlook 2007) and the .psf file is about 8 GB.
Any help i greatly appreciated.
Whenever I open an existing document in Word 2007 (on Windows XP), word turns on track changes, and changes the display mode to "Final" (that is, not "Final Showing Markup" -- so I often don't even notice track changes is on if I don't remember to pay attention.
This happens for ALL existing documents, and doesn't happen for new documents. I can't find any option in the configuration that would control this behavior.
I would like to restore the original/default behavior where documents are opening with Track Changes off, and in "Final showing markup" display.
Steps to Reproduce
Open Word 2007.
Create a new document. Verify that track changes is off.
Save the document and close Word.
Open the document (either directly or through Word).
Track changes is now on.
Any ideas?
I'm trying to print a Word 2007 document with Line Numbering turned on, and in Word the document looks fine but when I print the document, the line numbers appear in Hindi script.
See screenshots here: http://www.lessanvaezi.com/context-is-hindi-when-printing-line-numbers-in-word-2007/
I tried deleting my Normal template and allowing Word to create a new one, and testing using that, with no change. I also tried using different printers.
The problem goes away if I choose Arabic instead of Context under Word Options - Advanced - Show Document Content / Numeral.
However, I would like to keep this setting as Context. The question is, why is the default context of my document Hindi script? Is there a way to change this context?
I use Outlook 2007 for email. I also happen to use the categories for organizing my mail. This function is cool, because you can use keyboard shortcuts that make categorizing mail quick and easy. The problem I am having is that, since I use Google Apps Sync at home and at work, I can't seem to figure out how to transfer the existing category assignments that I spent months creating at work.
As my email comes and goes, I assign this and that, with thousands of messages all belonging to specific categories. When I finally installed and started using Google Apps Sync at home, the synchronization process works great, but all my messages are blank, i.e., don't have the color categories I assigned at work.
What's worse, I actually changed computers at work, and now am facing the same problem on the new workstation.
Using: Windows XP Pro, Outlook 2007, Google Apps.
Anyone run into this and find a solution?

I am running Office 2007 on Windows XP-SP3. My mouse wheel works fine in other applications, meaning that it scrolls information up and down when the mouse is positioned over a given panel. It's even working fine in the other Office 2007 apps, so this is not a hardware or driver problem.
It doesn't help to click on a cell to give the worksheet focus.
I've tried various Advanced options that people recommend, to no avail:
Allow editing directly in cell
Zoom on roll with IntelliMouse
What the heck, has Microsoft disabled this most useful functionality?
Word 2007 is installed on a Vista Home Premium machine and whenever it starts up it opens what appears to be a dynamic installer to do something and then throws up the "Out of Memory or Disk Space" error. Word 2007 never completes starting up.
Reinstalling Word hasn't helped and if I can avoid reinstalling Windows until Windows 7 is released and get Word working in the mean time, that would be ideal.
I've been looking around for a solution, once of which seemed to point to a problem with the user account. I created a second user on the machine and Word still had the same problem.
The other solution that seems possible is a corrupted normal.dot/normal.dotm file. However, even in the location it should be, I can't seem to find it.
Am I going in the right direction with this? Is there another solution I haven't come across that will fix this? If it is possible that renaming normal.dot/normal.dotm how can I find it?
The Outlook Web App has this nice, default, conversation grouping. It hides all earlier messages in a conversation from the message list. When I click a mail, it shows the conversation thread in the reading pane.
In Outlook 2007 I have tried grouping on received date, but it groups by minutes and not days. I've also tried grouping by conversation, but then I get this ugly tree in the list pane and I loose the "today", "yesterday", and vice versa groups.
So how do I make Outlook 2007 look like the Outlook Web App?

Hello everyone,
I'm using VSTO with Outlook 2007 and I need to show a form (or a user control) inside the main window in outlook when the user clicks a specific toolbar button, that is, I need it to appear in the same window that the reading pane appears and not to open in a window by itself. Is this possible?
Thank you for your time.
I simply want to run a ResetSearchIndex -force on a schedule. What is the correct usage for the command in the Scheduled Task properties? It seems I would first need to start Powershell, then load the console file or snap-in for Exchange, which one of these is the closest:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\WINDOW~2\v1.0\POWERS~1.EXE -"D:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Scripts" ResetSearchIndex.ps1 -force dbname
or
C:\WINDOWS\system32\WINDOW~2\v1.0\POWERS~1.EXE -PSConsoleFile "D:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\bin\exshell.psc1" -noexit -command ".'D:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Scripts' ResetSearchIndex.ps1 -force dbname
or
C:\WINDOWS\system32\WINDOW~2\v1.0\POWERS~1.EXE -PSConsoleFile "D:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\bin\exshell.psc1" -noexit -command ".'D:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Scripts\ResetSearchIndex.ps1' -force dbname
Our SBS 2008 server with Exchange 2007 started rejecting some (most) emails starting about 3 or 4 days ago. The return failure message looks something like this:
The error that the other server returned was: 451 451 4.7.0 Timeout waiting for client input (state 18)
I've rebooted our Sonicwall TZ-210 router and that doesn't make any difference. I think this problem has something to do with MTU (packet size) but I don't understand why the problem just started now. We haven't made any changes to our network infrastructure for weeks.
If I ping our SonicWall (DSL connection, bridge mode) forcing unfragmented packets, I start getting packet dropouts at packet size 1320 or so. Maybe this is completely normal, I'm not sure.
I haven't tried rebooting the DSL modem yet because I'm not on site. That's one of the next things I'll try.
Hello,
I have Exchange 2007 installed on SBS 2008. I also run a web server on the network. I only have one static IP and all traffic trough port 443 is routed to the webserver.
I would like to publish the ActiveSync application externally. If i temporarily route 443 traffic to the SBS then it is published (along with owa and everything else which i don't want).
Is there a way to host the ActiveSync application on the web server (Server 2008 with IIS7) or to get it to route traffic meant for the ActiveSync application?
I have tried creating a site on the webserver which uses the ActiveSync folder on the SBS but that does not seem to work.
Thanks,
Michael
Hi,
We are currently moving from Exchange 2003 to 2007 (8.2 build 176.2).
We have encounted an issue with one user.
In Outlook 2003 when getting a meeting request:
"Can't open this item. Could not complete the operation. One or more parameter values are nto valid."
The item cannot be previewed in the reading pane either.
The item can be viewed in OWA and iPhone fine.
I've tried with cache mode off and on. Different computers. Same issue.
There are the following entries on the account:
SMTP
[email protected][email protected]
X400
C=AU;A= ;P=Company Name;O=Exchange;S=LastName;G=FirstName;
I'm loathe to recreate the account. This will be an extreme last resort.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
