Screwed up my office 2003

[Guest]

I just got a new pc w/office 2003 preinstalled as a
demo. I uninstalled it and loaded up office 2002
frofessional w/fromt page but now I can't get access to
any folders like calender, contacts, tasks or anything
other than my "Hotmail". I tried uninstalling it several
times so I figured I would try to download and reinstall
office 2003... but there is no download.

Any ideas? MS makes me very frustrated sometimes.

Can you elaborate on what happened in OfficeXP when you tried to access your
Outlook folders?

When I try to access my outlook folders from the start
menu (by selecting E-Mail, Microsoft outlook) I get the
message: "X Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Unable to
display the selected folder or item. Could not open the
item. Try again"

When I try to access my outlook program by selecting
start/all programs/ microsoft outlook, outlook opens but
only displays my hotmail account. If I try to select any
of the folders, calendar for instance, I get the
message: "! Could not open the item. Try again"

When I try to access any of the other programs in office
2002 professional with front page, MS Word for instance,
by selecting start/all programs/ microsoft word, it opens
and is fully functional.

My outlook does not function properly.

By the way, if I never uninstalled office 2003 and
elected to purchase the ful version via the internet, and
then had to do a system re-install, would't I be out of
luck re: reinstalling Office 2003?

Thank you so much in advance for any assistance you may
offer.

As discussed, recreating your Outlook profile will fix this.
