Cannot access Outlook by clicking on icon - error in file

[duck.37]

I notice yesterday I could not delete one email, said there was an error
detected in file. I tried the Inbox diagnose through Help tab..no luck. Now I
cannot get on Outlook to open, I get an error box shows up saying:
"Cannot start Microsoft Ofice Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window. The
set of folders cannot be opened. Errors have been detected in the file.
C:....\Outlook.pst. Quit Outlook and all mail-enbabled applications, and then
use the Inbox repair tool (Scanpst.exe) to diagnose and repair errors in the
file. For more information about the Inbox repair tool, see Help."

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
