Hi Kathy This has been going on for 2+ weeks. The Laptop is new and I initially had no problem so because I wanted to sync with my PDA, I loaded the PDA software and did a sync. I have removed the sync program, uninstall Office completely, reinstalled Office 2007 but no improvement. As I type this reply the whole program is 10-15 seconds behind then it seems to suddenly catch-up. If I move about Outlook from say the Inbox to the sent box I have to wait for the program to catch-up. Do I delete all files (where do I go to do that) or is there a fix somewhere. Apart from this Outlook issue - I would have moved all action over to this computer - but this sloooow pace will drive me bananas. Just moving the cursor back to amend/correct a spelling mistake when typing this is sooo painful.

The system is scanning the old emails to set up indexing.) --=20 Kathy Jacobs,=A0 Microsoft MVP=A0 OneNote and PowerPoint Author of Kathy Jacobs on PowerPoint Get PowerPoint and OneNote information at www.onppt.com I believe life is meant to be lived.
