    Hello Linda R,

    I’m Segunfunmi, an Independent Advisor and Microsoft user like you. Thanks for posting the query here in this forum.

    This error message is related to MAPI (Messaging Application Programming Interface), which is a system that allows different email programs to communicate with each other. The error message suggests that you should try restarting your MAPI email program, such as Outlook, or save and close the document, then restart Word after restarting your MAPI email application. Are you using Outlook as your email program?

    Kind Regards, Segunfunmi.
