Big problem, if anyone can help.

I just transferred the pst files from one user account on winxp to another user account.

All the old emails got in, but then I realized the send / receive button was missing, the file menu's send/receive was missing, and outlook is not sending and receiving on its own either.

big problem. anyone? (outlook 2000, winxp)

You can reinstall the msoffice, or use the repair option avilalable in Msoffice Installation Cd. It can restore missing shortcuts

gooduser1,

Send/Receive button being grayed out can also mean that you are over quota if you are using a service for email, or that your Outlook profile is corrupted (which can also be caused by a lot of email).

Do you recall the send/receive button being grayed out before you imported the old email?

Reconfiguring a new profile in Outlook could solve your error. You can toggle between the new profile and this profile if you need to compare.

Hope this helps.
