I am not sure how many of you have come across the issue when u click on Outlook 2003 in Windows Vista you get the following error Message

"Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook. MAPI32.DLL is corrupt or the wrong version."

no matter what u do like uninstall and reinstall it back again u still get the same error message.To resolve this issue follow the simple step mentioned below it has worked for me i hope it works for everyone

You will have to locate the Following File [ MSMAPI32.DLL ] and how do you do that very simple

Click on Computer >> Then local disk C: >> Program Files >> Common Files >> System >> MSMAPI >> 1033 { Hear you will find the [ MSMAPI32.DLL ] }

Rename the file to something like MSMAPI32.XXX or MSMAPI32.OLD

Now restart Outlook. Hopefully you get the same result I got
