Weird "Forms Registry" Error
I just reinstalled
Exchange (or Windows Messaging) and I'm getting some sort
of weird "Forms Registry" error when I try to
look at one of my messages. The Microsoft Technical Support Knowledge Base has an excellent article, Q137245,
on dealing with all sorts of strange Exchange/Windows
Messaging-related problems like this. It specifies a
detailed series of steps for resolving such issues.
However, there's a fair chance that you can take care of
the forms registry nuisance by running a little program
called mlset32.
Exit from Exchange -- use
the Exit and Log Off entry under the File menu,
preferably. Launch Windows Explorer and take a look in
the folder where the Exchange program resides (probably
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Exchange or
C:\Program Files\Windows Messaging). You should
see a program named mlset32. Run it by
double-clicking on it. Restart Exchange (actually, it
wouldn't hurt to restart your system at this point) and
see if you can look at your messages without getting your
hand slapped. If this doesn't fix the problem, grab the
Knowledge Base article I mentioned.
[Sandy_G
pointed out that there is an easier way to find and run mlset32:
Click the Windows 95 Start button; select Find =>
Files or Folders; type "mlset32" into the
search field; click the Find Now button; a program named
"Mlset32.exe" will show up in the search
results area; double click on the program name to run mlset32.]
