On a single user? Possible I guess. I'd hate to turn it off for a day to confirm.

Our laptop users are typically set up to sync their offline folders when Outlook exits. We have one user that during this synchronization Outlook seems to take forever during "decompressing offline address book files". I did some Googling and found where someone suggested going to Send/Recieve and downloading the address first without details and then with details. This seemed to work for one day and then it started happening again. Another suggestion on the web was to simply turn off synchronization (or at least turn off full details). I see that as a band-aid without actually fixing the problem. Today I deleted the *.oab files, and downloaded the OAB which recreated them. Outlook is now closing down just fine. I'm waiting to see what happens tomorrow. Has anyone else seen this? What was your solution? If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. - Doug Larson ________________________________ Paul
