Can I use Outlook 2003 with SQL 7?

I know Outlook 2002 can cause SQL 6.5 and SQL 7 to hang. I would like to know if Outlook 2003 is also NOT recommended for SQL 7? Thanks, Dave

No answer to your question, just a sidenote. You know that SQL Server 7.0 isn’t supported on Windows 2003? Have a look here:http://www.microsoft.com/sql/howtobuy/windowsnetsupport.asp —

There is no such inforamtion on technet that it cannot be used, but I feel it is an odd combination and you may try if there is no alternative. Its better to test on development environment and then on production box. Satya SKJ

Thanks Satya. On a related subject, do you know anything about the following error? Error 22030: A MAPI error (error number:16389) occurred.: MapiLogonEx Failed due to MAPI error 16389. The MAPI Call failed. We have one SQL 7 server generating the following error whenever we test SQL Agent Mail and SQL Mail. I noticed the Exchange 5 client was installed along with Outlook so I uninstalled both and reinstalled Outlook 2003. The problem still occurs. I created a profile while connected as the SQL Server service account and MSSQLServer and SQLServerAgent run using the same domain account. We’re thinking about reapplying the Windows 2000 service pack, but are unsure if this will solve the problem. Any ideas??? Thanks, Dave

When I had this problem previously, I checked for the correct DLLs, so chekc for mapi32.dll and its size. Satya SKJ

I found it in WINNTsystem32 with a size of 128KB and a date of 7/26/2000 7:00AM. It also exists under Program FilesCommon FilesSystemMSMAPI1033 with a size of 135KB and a date of 12/10/2002. I have older DLLs on server not experiencing any problems. What do you suggest? Dave

Try to replace that DLL by taking a copy of current DLL. Satya SKJ

I replaced it and ran regsvr32 C:WINNTSystem32MAPI32.DLL. Now I’m receiving the following error. C:WINNTSystem32MAPI32.DLL was loaded, but the DllRegisterServer entry point was not found. Dll RegisterServer may not be exported, or a corrupt version of mapi32.dll may be in memory. Consider using PView to detect and remove it. Sorry for the questions. Unfortunately I have little DLL experience. Dave

Ah, try to unregister the DLL using /U switch and add again.

Unfortunately I tried that and received the same error message. I ran pview, as the message suggests, but I do not see a MAPI service running unless I am looking for the wrong name. Dave
