Hmm strange, but I have tried that resolution to no avail.

Ok im at work right now and I just tried

HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Office \ 9.0 \ Outlook \ Preferences
New Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value Name: MinToTray
Data: 1 (0 to disable MinToTray)

I also tried changing between binary and hex not that id think that was the cause... I closed reg edit and nothing, I rebooted and nothing. There must be something I am overlooking if everyone else is getting it to the systray.

The 9.0 is your problem it should be 10.0 for 2000 or 2002

Well if you have outlook 2000 or 2002(XP) installed there should be a 10.0 directory listed under that reg key.

Are you running an office install with Outlook, or just a straight Outlook install?

It is from the office install cd but as I said we have strict policies on software so only word and outlook was installed. I show in my about outlook section that it is indeed outlook 2000. Though the build number shows 9.0.0.2711 if that helps.

Yeah that is the Outlook 2000 version number. The only thing I can think is that your company either has a group policy enforcing registry changes, or that it is because you don't have a complete Office install.
