Office Express Error Msg: SENT file is currently being used by Outlook or by another application AND don't GET COMPACT. Help!

Hello!
 
 
I have both Outlook 2003 and Outlook Express 2003 loaded on my computer
Only, I use Outlook Express and have not used regularly Outlook in 5 years.
I have no problems using Express, (both in the sending or receiving of emails).
There is no "snap-emails" sent or received in Outlook regular and none in the Outbox.  The same with the Express.
 
About every month, compresses files Outlook Express and in doing so, the folder sent items do not get compressed, it does not create a new file SentItems.bak and it gives me the error: has SENT the file is currently being used by Outlook or by another application. 
 
All the time this problem started, I received a number of updates to Office 2003 from Microsoft (probably updates 20-25).  They have installed without incident and that's the only problem resulting, I had with one of the components of Office.
 
Thanks again for your help.  I'm looking forward to this problem so that it works correctly.

The sent items folder may have a corruption.  Create a new folder and copy the text in the folder into the new folder.  Then close OE and delete the file sent items.dbx.  OE will create a new.  DBX files should not receive more than a few hundred megabytes or they get corrupted.

A more effective solution: since you seem to have corruption, it may mean that there are more, if you can set up a new message store by clicking file | Identities.  Then you can add your accounts, use the file | Import | Messages to bring them from the old identity.  Which will remove all corruption.

Whatever it is, it's a good time to save your messages in OE, because it tends to remove them in unexpected ways.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#6 also, if resumes default Outlook, he likes to do when he starts to date, just see www.oehelp.com/oedef.aspx

See if that helps.

    PD: Sorry for my English

    If you delete a file,
    I think that you should close the connection and reopen it. If you want to keep the same file name, you can also call truncate (0) to move to the beginning of the file and overwrite it. In addition, if the file already exists, I don't think it is necessary to create it again.

    Hello

    Assure us that first that no other application is using the file.

    Start your Blackberry in safe mode.

    Use the option of the Explorer in the main menu of the media to locate and delete the file.

    (Procedures with pictures are listed below).

    When you are finished with the file, and then restart (battery pull) your device in normal mode.

    Let us know how it goes!

  • Deleting a file returned "file is currently in use."

    I have the following method I use to delete the two files, when ran, I got the message "the file is currently in use."

    I think that my mistake is to check if the file exists before delete, however I deleted this condition and I have the same message.

    Any thoughts on how I can improve this feature?

    I think it's the names of common path between the two connections of file causing the error. Try to use a connection file and delete each file individually rather than have two connections to file and delete them simultaneously.

  • Outlook Express error (corrupt Inbox file) 0x800c0133

    I use Outlook Express. I can send, but not receive. I have deleted many emails that were never deleted, but still cannot receive. I was told that I have a damaged the Inbox file. Something about the Inbox.dbx box, but I don't know or how to fix this error.

    Error number: 0x800C0133 = a corrupt Inbox.
     

    Move any message you want to save to a local folder that you create. Then, remove the problem of Inbox as follows.
     

    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     

    In Windows XP, the files of user OE (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.
     

    With OE closed, find the box of Inbox.dbx and delete it. Another will be created automatically when you open OE.
     

    General precautions for Outlook Express:
     

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
     

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often. Space messages take up is not recovered until you compact.
     

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
     

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

  • Explorer.exe shows error msg: "this file has no program associated with him...". »

    PROBLEM: Clicking on Windows 'Explorer.exe' (or the shortcut of the program itself) causes the following error msg (under the title: "explorer.exe"): "this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action."  "Please install a program or, if such is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel".

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Work around successful - even if it's not ideal - is the following: when I right click on the shortcut of windows Explorer, a list of folders "frequent" previously selected appears.   When I chose one, windows Explorer opens properly and points to the selected folder.   From there on, can I nagivate to any other directory/folder correctly.

    I fear, however, as to why the shortcut/program file themselves are causing the error message.

    I get the same error (this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action.)  Please install a program or, if such is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel)

    More funny thing is that I can click on computer and Explorer works very well.  The shortcut on the taskbar and Windows Explorer under the accessories section are affected in this way.  All other files with exe extensions seem to work well.  I'm running Windows 7 32-bit version.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

    The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

    Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    Test in safe mode. Same problem?

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.
