SYMPTOMS

After you install Microsoft Outlook 97 and then remove Microsoft Exchange Client through the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs option, some shared DLLs are deleted that are needed by Outlook 97.

CAUSE

Microsoft Exchange Setup does not mark some DLLs as shared; therefore, they are not protected during the Remove process.

WORKAROUND

Remove Microsoft Exchange before you install Outlook, or reinstall Outlook after you remove Microsoft Exchange.
