I wear a lot of hats...
"The solutions and answers provided on Experts Exchange have been extremely helpful to me over the last few years. I wear a lot of hats - Developer, Database Administrator, Help Desk, etc., so I know a lot of things but not a lot about one thing. Experts Exchange gives me answers from people who do know a lot about one thing, in a easy to use platform." -Todd S.
Consider deleting your OST file (perhaps move it to a non-Outlook location), restart and then let Outlook synchronize again. The OST file could be damaged (not uncommon).
thank you for your response john hurst
i did try that, i also opened the properties of the sent items folder clicked on clear offline folder
hoping it would re-synchronize the mailbox/folder
i may also have a size problem
inbox reads at over 5GB! and when i see size of sent items on server it looks like almost 8GB!
is there a way to archive whats on server side to local file?

You can open Outlook and use the built in Archive function to archive mail. Unless the version of Exchange is very old, 8 GB should not be too much for Exchange.
Open Outlook Options, Advanced, go to the Auto Archive section and set up the options and then Archive Now.

thank you again john hurst
i read the size of the sent items incorrectly it was 900MB got 8GB
the inbox is at 5GB
exchange 2007 server
i know how to archive as you stated but i was not sure it would archive whats on server side as the local shows nothing; it starts to load as if it were going to show the items; then just states nothing to show here and when i check sync errors i see the above error i posted previously

Exchange 2007 and a modern version of Outlook can handle much more data (email) than you have, so I do not think size is an issue.
Make sure you know the Outlook Profile setup, close Outlook, delete the OST file again, and the go into Control Panel, Mail and delete the Outlook Profile.
Close out and go to Programs and Features. Repair Office, restart, update Office, make a new Profile in Control Panel, Mail, and set up Outlook again.
This makes a new Outlook Profile and renews Outlook (repaired). See if that works.

good evening john hurst
I apologize for leaving this question open so long...
your recommendations did not work; new everything including computer and by the time the mailbox syncs all the messages this sent items issue still remains
I am going to take exchange offline (whenever I can get the time window); run a complete Isinteg.exe to check the database; if we are still getting this error; I will then get .pst file backups of as much as I can then delete user profile completely from Active Directory and recreate mailbox and all
will update as soon as possible
thanks all for your patience and understanding
ALL help is GREATLY APPRECIATED!

Given all you said and did including a new computer, then this is really your next step and you need to re-create the mailbox. Obviously, I would not have suggested this as the first step, so now is the time to do it.
