I was using Office 2000 which ran Outlook Express. I loaded Office 2003 after which I lost all my contacts and have been unable to open any e-mails in my In Box. All other e-mails are unaffected. If I try to open Outlook 2003 I get the following message

The extension configuration file "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Addins\fldpub.ecf" could not be installed. There is an error in the syntax or format of the file"

Anyone any ideas?
