Outlook Taskbar problem

Apr 12, 2005 10:32PM PDT

My taskbar is misbehaving in O2003 - buttons like 'find a contact' are maximising themselves to fill the whole strip making the other buttons disappear. They return if I select them from the pulldown on the right, only to disappear when I select another button from the pulldown.

Not sure if I've explained that too well!

The buttons revert to how they 'ought' to look when I select 'customize' only to disappear again on clicking 'ok'.

I've noticed an option somewhere in Outlook's bewildering option pages (who WROTE this thing?) to keep the taskbar on two lines, this is greyed out, could it be related??

I've now gone as far as Uninstalling and reinstalling the entire Office suite and I STILL have this problem!

ANY help much appreciated!

Thanks!

Bill.
