Error message when you try to import or to export files in Outlook: "Microsoft Outlook cannot start the required translator"

SYMPTOMS
When you try to import or to export files in Microsoft Office Outlook 2003, you receive the following message:
Microsoft Office Outlook cannot start the required translator. This feature is not currently installed. Would you like to install it now?
Additionally, when you insert the Outlook 2003 CD-ROM or the Office 2003 CD-ROM, you may receive the following error message:

Error 1311. Source file not found C:/MSOCACHE/All Users

When you try to import or to export files in the 2007 Microsoft Office system, you may receive one of the following error messages:
Error 1334. The file '.SAM_1033' cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in cabinet file 'OutlkLR.CAB'. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package.
The file ‘C:\MSOCache\All Users\{}\’ is not a valid installation package for the product () 2007. Try to find the installation package ‘OutlookMUI.msi’ in a folder from which you can install MUI () 2007.
Error 1706. Setup cannot find the required files. Check your connection to the network, or CD-ROM drive. For other potential solutions to this problem, see C:\DOCUME~1\\LOCALS~1\Temp\Setup0000043c\SETUP.CHM.


CAUSE
This issue occurs if certain translator files or certain database converters are not available because they were not installed during Setup. Converters in Outlook are installed on demand. Additionally, the local install source folder (Msocache) may be damaged or missing.

This issue also applies to third-party personal information management (PIM) files and to file types that use Open Database Connectivity (ODBC).

RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, use one of the following methods, as appropriate for the version of Outlook that you are running.

Outlook 2003
Click Yes when you receive the message that is mentioned in the "Symptoms" section of this article. After you click Yes, Microsoft Windows Installer starts and then installs the database converters and translator files for the file that you want to import or to export.

If this resolution does not resolve the issue, run the Microsoft Office Setup program and install the filters directly. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Exit Outlook 2003.
2. Remove the Msocache folder. For more information about how to remove the Msocache folder, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
825933 Local Install Source (Msocache)
3. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
4. Click Add or Remove Programs.
5. In the Currently installed programs list, click Microsoft Office 2003, and then click Change.
6. In the Microsoft Office 2003 Setup dialog box, click Add or Remove Features under the Maintenance Mode Options area, and then click Next.
7. Under the Custom Setup area, click to select the Choose advanced customization of applications check box, and then click Next.
8. Under the Choose update options for applications and tools area, expand Microsoft Office Outlook.
9. Click the down arrow next to Importers and Exporters, and then click either the Run from My Computer option or the Run all from My Computer option.
10. In the Microsoft Office 2003 Setup dialog box, click Update.


Microsoft Office Outlook 2007
Insert the CD or DVD media when you are prompted. If you installed Outlook 2007 from a network share, make sure that the share is accessible from your workstation.

After you provide the setup files, the setup process will complete successfully. Additionally, any missing or corrupted files in the \MSOCache folder will be replaced.

If the same error occurs in the future, delete the \MSOCache folder, and then run the Online Microsoft Outlook setup 2007 process again. When run Setup again, make sure that you select the Repair option in the Change your installation window.

How to create distribution list in Outlook

A distribution list, also known as a mailing list, is a collection of email addresses. You can use distribution lists to send an email message to several people at one time. The list can contain a few addresses, or many.

All email systems at Indiana University provide ways to create, manage, and send to distribution lists. For example, you may use Exchange mailing lists to send mail to a group of people. For more information, see How do I send an email message to a group of people? Note that the commands, options, and capacities vary on each system. Furthermore, lists housed on specific systems are unavailable for shared use on other systems. It post provides Outlook Support for creating distribution list and how to manage distribution list. The following method is used to do it.

  2. In the Name box, type a name.
  3. Click Select Members.
  4. In the Show names from the list, click the address book that contains the e-mail addresses you want in your distribution list.
  5. In the Type name or select from list box, type a name you want to include. In the list below, select the name, and then click Members. Do this for each person you want to add to the distribution list, and then click OK.

If you want to add a longer description of the distribution list, click the Notes tab, and then type the text.

The distribution list is saved in your Contacts folder by the name you give it.

Create a distribution list by copying names from an e-mail message

  1. In the e-mail message you want to copy the names from, select the names in the To or Cc box (To, Cc, and Bcc boxes: A message is sent to the recipients in the To box.

Excel Text don't appear correctly on the Web page

Upgrade to Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.01 or later To view a Web page that was saved with interactive data and have all the text appear correctly, you must use Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.01 or later and have the Microsoft Office Web Components (Microsoft Office Web Components: Interactive components, such as worksheets, charts, and PivotTable lists on Web pages that facilitate data analysis. To use these components, you must have a Microsoft Office license.) Installed.

Modify cells that contain automatically wrapped text You might have formatted cells with wrapped text before you published or saved the data as a Web page. In an interactive PivotTable list or spreadsheet on a Web page, text does not wrap within cells. To prevent text from being cut off when you publish or save it, you can shorten the text, use multiple cells for text, or widen the column in your worksheet, and then republish the data.

Do not use CSS for font formatting If you are using a browser that doesn't support cascading style sheets (CSS), do the following:

  1. On the Tools menu in Excel, click Options, and then click the General tab.
  2. Click Web Options, and then click the Browsers tab.
  3. Clear the Rely on CSS for font formatting check box.
  4. Republish your data.

How AutoRecover and AutoSave work

The AutoRecover option (in these Microsoft Office programs: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher, and Visio) and AutoSave option (in Microsoft Office Outlook) can help you avoid losing work in two ways:
• Your data is automatically saved If you enable Auto Recover or AutoSave, your file (such as a Microsoft Office Word document) or item (such as an Outlook Support and Outlook e-mail message) is automatically saved as often as you want. Therefore, if you have been working for a long time but forget to save a file or if your power goes out, the file you have been working on contains all or at least some of the work you have done since you last saved it.
• Your program state is automatically saved In Microsoft Office Excel, Microsoft Office Outlook, Microsoft Office PowerPoint, and Microsoft Office Word, there is an additional benefit to enabling AutoRecover or AutoSave. In these programs, if you enable this option, some aspects of the state of the program are recovered when the program is restarted after it closed abnormally.
For example, you are working on several Excel workbooks at the same time. Each file is open in a different window, with specific data visible in each window. In one of the workbooks, a cell is selected to help you keep track of which rows you already reviewed, and then Excel crashes. When you restart Excel, it opens the workbooks again and restores the windows to the way they were before Excel crashed.
Although not every aspect of your program's state can be recovered, in many cases, the Recovery feature can help you recover more quickly.

Add In Excel data on the Web

Some folks at Microsoft Research have developed an add in that makes it easy to use a Web page as a data source in Excel. Here is a brief description:

The Excel 2007 Web Data Add-In provides an intuitive user interface for importing textual data from any given webpage via a user’s selections of interest, such as stock quotes, weather temperature, ect, into a spreadsheet and keeping that data “up-to-date”. That is, if the webpage data changes, the spreadsheet can be updated by a click of the data “Refresh” button. Also note that the add-in can automatically learn from a user’s selection and optionally select similar items to help save time. You can put Excel sheet data over the Network. Microsoft Office 2007 apply this facility through Outlook Support and using Outlook it will done.

Would you like your employees to be able to access, from a Web page, sales data for their territories compared to sales data for other employees? Or how about a spreadsheet for standard cost calculation? Or maybe you want to use a Web page to show the profits in different areas of your company in a chart.

You can save a Microsoft Excel workbook or part of the workbook, such as a single item on the worksheet, as a Web page and make it available on an HTTP (HTTP: Internet protocol that delivers information on the World Wide Web. Makes it possible for a user with a client program to enter a URL (or click a hyperlink) and retrieve text, graphics, sound, and other digital information from a Web server.) site, an FTP (FTP: A communication protocol that makes it possible for a user to transfer files between remote locations on a network. This protocol also allows users to use FTP commands, such as listing files and folders, to work with files on a remote location.) site, a Web server (Web server: A computer that hosts Web pages and responds to requests from browsers. Also known as an HTTP server, a Web server stores files whose URLs begin with http://.), or a network server for users to view or interact with. For example, if you have sales figures set up on an Excel worksheet, you can publish the figures along with a chart to compare figures on a Web page, so that users can view or even work with the numbers in their browsers without having to open Excel.

How Excel Services supports connections to external data sources

PivotTable reports are designed to aggregate a lot of numerical data into sums and totals, and to work with multidimensional data that is organized into a hierarchy. On the other hand, external data ranges are two-dimensional tables structured as rows and columns, that display nonaggregated records of source data.

When you use the Data Connection Wizard or Microsoft Query to connect to external data, you usually create an external data range. The only exception to this is when you create a PivotTable report that is connected to external data. A PivotTable report does not create an external data range. This difference in the way that connections are created is important to understand when you publish a workbook to Excel Services, because Excel Services only supports external data connections based on PivotTable reports and does not support external data ranges.

What's new in Word 2007?

The first conspicuously new feature you'll encounter when you start Word will undoubtedly be the Ribbon, which is part of the new interface called Microsoft Office Fluent user interface. And if you've used previous versions of Word, you'll wonder where the menus and toolbars have gone. That's the beauty of the Ribbon. No longer do you have to wander through the maze of menus, submenus, and toolbars searching for what you want. On the Ribbon are all the commands, styles, and resources you need, arranged on task-oriented tabs. The one remaining toolbar is the Quick Access toolbar, where you can place your most frequently used commands and resources for easy access, regardless of which tab of the Ribbon is active.

Another part of the new Microsoft Office Fluent user interface interface is the galleries. These are the graphical equivalents of drop-down menus, except that they show you samples of all the choices that are available for you to “try on.” There are many different galleries—for styles, for themes, for page numbers, and so on. The galleries provide you with the ability to look before you leap. With Live Preview, you can see how the formatting you choose will change your text, pictures, or other content, or how the overall look of your document will change when you switch the theme simply by pointing to the different items in the galleries.

Some of the biggest changes you'll encounter are the new file types. Word uses a whole new file structure that, unfortunately, isn't directly compatible with earlier versions of Word. Of course, you can open and use files from earlier versions, but people who are using any earlier version of Word will need to download and install a converter so that they can open the documents you create using the Word 2007 file format. However, the good news is that the new file format is what enables many of the improvements in Word 2007.

Word 2007 also includes an entirely new graphics tool, SmartArt, which is designed to help you create diagrams and lists that graphically present your information. If you work with technical or legal documents into which you need to insert citations, a full bibliography, a list of works cited, or a legal table of authorities, you'll find that Word's bibliography and citations features are great new ways to take care of these often tedious and time-consuming chores.

And it's not only all the new stuff that's great. Some of Word's existing features have been much enhanced too. Checking your grammar and spelling has become more accurate, and you can now check the contextual use of words. If you're involved in mathematics, science, or engineering, you'll appreciate the enhanced Equations feature, which not only supplies some predesigned equations that you can edit but also makes it easy to create your own equations and save them for future use. Whether you need legal blacklining to indicate changes in a document or you need to track the changes reviewers make to your documents, you'll find the enhancements to the Track Changes feature—including the ability to distinguish between what has been added or deleted and what has been moved—really invaluable.

Word 2007 has also greatly improved document safety and security. You'll be better able to control access to your documents—for example, you can indicate when a document is completed and that no further changes may be made to it. You can easily check for and remove any sensitive or personal information in your documents that you don't want other people to have access to. You can digitally sign a document to provide verification in the electronic file that it really was you who signed it, and you can even attach a scanned image of your signature right there in the document. With Word's improved document-recovery system, your files are now more secure from loss, and the new file system also assists you in being able to recover files if they've become corrupted. And if you end up with system problems involving Word and your computer, you can easily run a series of diagnostics that can determine the problem and can then either fix it or get you the help you need to get it fixed.

Proofing Tools of Power Point 2007

The following are some new features of the spelling checker:
The spelling checker has been made more consistent across the 2007 Microsoft Office system programs. Examples of this change include the following:
Several spelling checker options are now global. If you change one of these options in one Office program, that option is also changed for all the other Office programs. For more information, see the article Choose how spelling and grammar checking work.
In addition to sharing the same custom dictionaries, all programs can manage them by using the same dialog box. For more information, see the article Use custom dictionaries to add words to the spelling checker.
The 2007 Microsoft Office system spelling checker includes the post-reform French dictionary. In Microsoft Office 2003, this was an add-in that had to be separately installed. For more information, see the article Choose how spelling and grammar checking work.
An exclusion dictionary is automatically created for a language the first time that language is used. Exclusion dictionaries let you force the spelling checker to flag words you want to avoid using. They are handy for avoiding words that are obscene or that don't match your style guide. For more information, see the article Use exclusion dictionaries to specify a preferred spelling for a word.
The spelling checker can find and flag some contextual spelling errors. Have you ever typed a mistake similar to the following? I will see you their. In Office PowerPoint 2007, you can enable the Use contextual spelling option to get help with finding and fixing this type of mistake. This option is available when you check the spelling of documents in English, German, or Spanish. For more information, see the article Choose how spelling and grammar checking work.

Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac

Microsoft office 2008 for Mac is the most recent version of the Microsoft Office productivity for suite for Mac OS X. It supersedes Office 2004 for Mac and is the Macintosh equivalent of office 2007, the latest version for Windows. It was developed by Microsoft’s Macintosh Business Unit and released on January 15, 2008.

Office 2008 for Mac was originally slated for release in the second half of 2007; however it was delayed until January 2008, citing the need to fix lingering bugs. Office 2008 is the first version of Office for Mac supplied as a Universal Binary.

Unlike Office 2007 for Windows, Office 2008 was not offered as a public beta before its scheduled release date.

Features

Office 2008 for Mac includes the same core programs currently included with Office 2004 for Mac: Entourage, Excel, PowerPoint and Word.

Mac-only features included are a publishing layout view, which offers functionality similar to Microsoft Publisher for Windows, a "Ledger Sheet mode" in Excel to ease financial tasks, and a "My Day" application offering a quick way to view the day's events.

Office 2008 supports the new Office Open XML format, and defaults to saving all files in this format. On February 21, 2008 Geoff Price revealed that the format conversion update for Office 2004 would be delayed until June 2008 in order to provide the first update to Office 2008.

Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications is not supported in this version. As a result such Excel add-ins as solver, which are dependent on VBA, were not bundled in this latest release. Excel in Office 2008 for the Mac also still lacks Pivot Chart functionality, which has long been a feature in the Windows version. Microsoft has announced that VBA will be making a return in the next version of Microsoft Office for Mac. AppleScript and the Open Scripting Architecture is, however, supported.

I want to share some thing my experience about Outlook Support, Online email support and Computer Help.
