To see hidden files:
1.
On the Tools menu in Windows Explorer, click Folder Options.
2.
Click the View tab.
3.
Under Hidden files and folders, click Show hidden files and folders.
Note To access Windows Explorer, click Start, point to All Programs, and
then click Windows Explorer.
First thing I would try is to clean up the forms cache.
To do so, follow these steps:
1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2. Click the Other tab, and then click Advanced Options.
3. Click Custom Forms.
4. Click Manage Forms.
5. Click Clear Cache.
6. Close all open windows, and then restart Outlook 2003.
If the above does not work, try the following.
Deleting the Forms Cache File:
The Frmcache.dat file is the primary file to delete. The Frmcache.dat
file serves as an index of the individual forms that have been cached
on the computer. Use the following steps to manually delete the
Frmcache.dat file. In addition, these steps delete all of the cached
forms on your computer, which are stored in subfolders of the
Forms folder.
1.. Quit Outlook.
2.. Search the Hard drive (<F3>) to locate the Frmcache.dat file.
(Be sure to check in HIDDEN files on W2K or WXP.)
3.. Delete all that are found from the FIND window.
4.. Open Outlook.
When you restart Outlook, and use a form, the forms cache
is re-created.

This may be related. When iattempt to enter an appointment in Outlook 2003
calendar I receive an error message staing" The form required to view this
message cannot be displayed. Contact your administrator." Also, although i
synched my Palm ZIRE with a couple of new appointments, those appointments do
not appear in Outlook. What do i do?

Brian,
Your fix worked. Thanks.
Do you know of a way I can prevent the problem from recurring?

Great. You're welcome.

I've had it happen to me exactly once in several years of using Outlook. I
don't hink you need to worry much about it and, if it recurs, just fix it
again.
