SYMPTOMS

When you try to view or delete a recurring appointment in Microsoft Outlook 98, Day/Week/Month view, you may get the following error message:

Can't open this item. The object could not be found.


RESOLUTION

Use one of the following methods.

Method 1

  1. On the View menu, point to Current View and click Recurring Appointments.


  2. Double-click to open the appointment or right-click and click Delete to remove the appointment.

    NOTE: If you are opening an item, this workaround will only allow you open the recurring series and not the individual appointment.

You may need to reregister the Outlook forms. To do this, first rename the FRMCACHE.DAT in the <Windows>\Forms folder. Then run Outlook 98 Setup and choose to reinstall Outlook.
