From navigation panel, open outlook apps without navigation panel

[paul.domaskis]

I keep Outlook open on for email, with the navigation panel along the
left. I often right-click subfolders on the navigation panel and open
them in a separate window. I also right-click Journal and various
calendars in order to open them in a separate window.

Whenever I right-click something in the navigation panel in order to
open that folder/application in a new window, I want that folder/
application to open without the navigation panel. It's as simple as
clicking Alt-F1 to banish the navigation panel, but I'm frequently
opening and closing apps...is there a way to have the application open
in a new window without a navigation panel by default? I do not want
to close the navigation panel in the main Outlook window (for my
email) in order to accomplish this.

AFAIK, no.

Thanks, Milly. (BTW, I forgot to post my Outlook: 2003 -- not that it
matters for this question).
