Unable to create or send messages in Microsoft Outlook

[Bali]

Somehow I'm unable to create or send messages in Microsoft Outlook.
The message window disappears off the desktop once I open it,
eventhough I see that I have it open on the taskbar. Any advice or
even a temporary workaround solution so I can respond to emails?
Tried rebooting the computer and it didn't help. There is no error
message and nothing out of the ordinary was done prior to this
happening. The computer is using Windows 2000 I think and Microsoft
Office 2003 is installed I think. I've tried searching google but no
luck yet.

Are you using dual monitors? Have you tried changing your screen resolution
(Control Panel | Display if I recall correctly in Windows 2000) to something
else and see if that reveals your message inspector?

Have you tried minimizing all of the other windows in case it's behind them?

Can you see it if you right click on it and choose maximize? If so, its off
screen. Right click on the task bar - is tile or cascade an option? Choose
one and it will bring the window on screen.
