Why the reinstall?

Computer: stand-alone notebook PC running Widows XP Pro, SP2, all updates
current.

Problem:

I uninstalled Office 2003 and then re-installed it.

Word and the other programs except Outlook 2003 appear to be fine.

When I double click Outlook (even if I use Safe mode), it appears to
start,
goes to the outline of the mail screen and then quits. I then see the
following dialog box:

"Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Unable to Open the Outlook Window. The
set of folders could not be opened. The server is not available. Contact
your administrator if this condition persists."

Anyone have any idea what is going on here and how to take care of it?
