My boss is running outlook 2000 and needs to share his outlook calendar. He shares his calendar with his secretary who also has uses outlook. It ran great for a while now I get this error and it it continuous. Not on both machines only ne machine the other pc does not ecperience this error. They both use XP pro. This is the error

Outlook has encountered an error and needs to close.
AppName:outlook.exe
ApprVer:9.0.0.2416 ModName.fldpub.dll.

It seems from the error message this has to do with the public folder so the calendar can be shared. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. It will work fine for a while and as soon as I get the error again it will not stop until I repeat the process. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate some advice or help. Thanks

I have put an answer here for you, but it is for 2003. It migh work though. No harm in trying.

WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, remove the McAfee Hawkex add-in. To do this:
1. Quit Outlook 2003.
2. Click Start, and then click Run.
3. In the Open box, type outlook.exe /safe, and then click OK.
4. On the Tools menu, click Options.
5. On the Other tab, click Advanced Options.
6. In the Advanced Options dialog box, click Add-In Manager.
7. Click to select the check boxes of all the add-ins that you require except for the McAfee Hawkex add-in, and then click OK.
8. In the Advanced Options dialog box, click OK, and then click OK in the Options dialog box.
9. Quit and restart Outlook 2003.

Please post back if you have anymore problems or questions.

Thanks for your suggestion but I do not have McAfee on this system. However I did uninstall my virus protection in case that was causing the problem but no luck, still getting the error message. It seems from the error message it has to do with the public folders that are shared in outlook according to the error message. I'm not sure what else I can try. If you have any more suggestions I would appreciate it.

Thanks for your help.

Have you tried a re-install and select repair, i think there is a repair option that is listed when you load in your disk (touch wood), i have not tested this as yet so i will put it on my big to-do list.

Please post back if you have anymore problems or questions.

Thanks I tried your fix but no luck. Now I have another issue as well besides the annoying error that keeps popping up. In trying to share the calendar with his secretary he adds an appointment and it will populate her calendar. Now it no longer populates her calendar. She can add appointments to his calendar and they show up but no the other way around. Any ideas, are these two errors related? Apparently this has not worked for a while and we just noticed the other day. I have tried all I can and am desperately looking for an answer. Thanks in advance to any one who can help me.

In Microsoft Outlook there is an inbuilt inbox repairing tool. This tool is helpful to recover all lost emails, contacts, notes, tasks, calendar, etc. It is installed automatically during setup. If your Pst file get corrupt, you can repair it by using scapst.exe inbox repair tool.

In Windows 2000, you can locate these programs in the following folder:
:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Mapi\1033\NT\Scanpst.exe
In case if inbox repair tool not able to repair corrupted .pst file, you should use Outlook PST Repair Software to recover all information from corrupted .pst files.
