Microsoft outlook : The form requested to view this message cannot be displayed

Recently one of my users tried to enter an appointment into her calendar only to receive the following message : “The form required to view this message cannot be displayed. Contact your administrator”.
form cache
A reboot or updates won’t solve this error because the forms cache has become corrupted. The following fix worked a treat in Outlook 2003 so hopefully it will work for you too.
From the ‘Tools’ menu, select ‘Options’ and click on the ‘Other tab’.
OptionsOther
Click on ‘Advanced Options’, which is in the ‘General’ section of the dialog
AdvancedOptions1
Now click on ‘Custom Forms’
Options
Click on ‘Manage Forms’.
FormsManager
Click on Clear Cache
