    I have two emails which have been "stuck" in my outbox for several months. Outlook will not let me delete them or remove them in any way. I have done a Google search but the possible solutions didn't work for me.
    Anyone ever experience this?

    Never seen it that bad. I'd back up your data, delete that profile, then start over.

    What version of Outlook? There should be a 'ScanPST.exe' and/or a 'ScanOst.exe' file somewhere in your Program directory. There may even be an 'Inbox Repair' shortcut in your Accessories menu somewhere. Try running it before taking drastic actions like deleting profiles.
