Re: Outlook Express problem

[Antonio Fernandez-Vicenti <afvaiv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jim,
Google search for "Compact Check Count"
Lots of people with same problem.
Following instructions form some of these posts, I modified (manuallly) 
from time to time, with REGEDIT, the value in the Register to 0 .
But to do it programmatically, one of the links
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/itproxpsp/thread/9c206033-d309-4f24-8018-ebbc3dff1abd
includes some code I have NOT tested my self...
Another of the links, mentions another solution, but seems not to work 
ALWAYS, so... not trustable (for me...)
