That seems to have done the trick.

|
| HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Catalog\
|
| In this key there is a REG_BINARY entry for each data file. For Office
2003

|
| As always, make a backup of the registry, or the user's profile before
| editing the registry, but I'm fairly certain this is what will fix your
