This worked for me, I'm running XP SP2 and couldn't print e-mails
Close Outlook Express, Go to start > run > type in regsvr32 ole32.dll > OK.

To save people the bother i have zipped up the registry files and a readme for people to try it themselves, takes about 1 min to do and will save you a lot of messing around, this worked 100PC for me!! I am hosting the file on my website, here is the link to it.

Hope it sorts it

Thanks aljay, but the credit must go to Knoxie, that's who gave me the valuable information which solved my problem.

Knoxie is the other Wizard. Is there a rule saying you can only have 1 Wizard. In New Zealand we have the Hobbits (Lord Of The Rings). I think Peter Jackson is one of them BUT he has lost a lot of weight since I last saw him.

You guys saved me a lot of time fixing that software. I even purchased a software programm on line BUT that did not work. Money down the drain.

Take Care

Good luck

Aljay

The web site that knoxie has for this problem is just the answer and I just want to thank you for the solution to this problem thanks again.:D

Thank Knoxie he is the wizard. I am just the guy who goes with the flow. I would like to meet or correspond with him or sally-ann

In New Zealand we don't have too much hastle with it stuff BUT we like the high techs out there that are really good at solving computer and software problems

Contact me anytime and if you guys ever come down to Auckland look me up there is always a bed here for you. Sue and I would always welcome you.

Thanks John & Sue

Hi John & Sue
Well, if ever I am lucky enough to come to Aukland I will definitely look you up.
I used to run my own business repairing and upgrading computers, I only gave the business up 18 months ago because I underwebt major surgery and I was unable to work for a period, but I am slowly going back to it, I do a fair bit of computer repair work from home, in fact I am working on a couple of machines at the moment.
If you wish to correspone with me please feel free to do so, you can contact me direct at my e mail address which is [email protected]

Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Regards
Miss Sally-Ann Dixon

Hello

Glad that I could be of help to you all! I'm still not sure which program it was that did this to the system but I think I got the problem when I uninstalled the program, it was a piece of shareware.

Hey John thanks for the offer! Ill be round Friday ;) hmm I'm a long way away in leafy Oxfordshire UK, right about now I couldn't think of a better place than Auckland to be honest! You are sooo lucky!!

Glad that all your printing problems are solved and thanks for all the kind comments raised by everyone so far!

All the best

Knoxie

Just wanted to say hello to everyone, I am new here, I also had this problem, I was to afraid to try to edit the registry. My problem arose after installing Nero 7 Ultra Edition. Before that, all was fine. Thanks to Knoxie for the valuable information, I downloaded your file, unzipped to a new folder and done what you said. Everything seems to be working great now. I hope the fix from knoxie can help someone else in the future.

Thanks

AHA!!
Now there might be the cause of the problem, my problem started soon after installing Nero 7 as well.
I wonder if Ahead (the people who make Nero) are aware of this problem, and have a fix for it ?
I shall have a look on their website later and see if they mention it or not.

I am at present keeping myself all wrapped up warm, I have got this damn flu bug, and I feel sooooooooooooooo ill, I need someone to come and nurse me better, and keep me warm... ooppppppppppppps... wrong website :p :eek:

Wish I could help you out. Thanks for the reply.

When I try to print an email message I get "operation failed " This just started within the last week or so . I'm using Outlook 2003 . Any ideas ?

I don't really know how to help you. I received script error message and followed the instructions I read about. Thanks for asking.

Try the method we all tried and see if it helps.
Have you recently installed\uninstalled Nero software by any chance ? As this seems to be the common factor among a lot of us who have had the problems.

Knoxie's solution worked like a charm on Outlook 2003. Thanks so much.

Hi all,
Same problem here. Using Outlook Express 6 and XP pro.

Followed Knoxie's advice, fixed problem!

Go to site below, download zip file, read the readme file and follow instructions. Too easy... thankyou Knoxie and Admin Matt!

Ahaaa!. I too have recently played around with Nero 7 Ultra... seems as though it may be the culprit!

My Father has also recently had the problem, I sent him the patches and it sorted it out, it seems that the problem springs up either when you install Nero 7 or un-install it to return to Nero 6.
Everyone I know who has been using Nero 7 is having a problem where after a while you try and run the software and it crashes and shuts down.
It certainly does seem that this software is the cause of a lot of problems, I shall be sticking to V6 from now on, it works fine and without any problems at all.

Thanks Knoxie!
I have had the problem for some time now, and like others have just pasted the email into Word. What a pain. I downloaded and imported your fix, and all is well! Saves me quite a bit of time!
FYI, I, too, have installed NERO. Guess they have an "undocumented feature".

All the best,
