corrupt calendar--how to delete and start over

My Outlook calendar (stand alone--not over the internet or on an exchange
server) is very full from many years of use and recurring items that have
multiplied inappropriately and what I want to do is delete my entire Office
suite (I've backed up contacts, tasks, and email .pst files to re-use them)
and install a brand new version of Office 2003 that I just got. After I
remove the program from Add\Remove programs and go into the c: drive and
remove the MS Office folder, then reboot and re-install a fresh MS Office, it
installs OK and when I open OUtlook all my emails and calendar are still
there--and I want it gone so I can have a fresh calendar and can reinstall my
old emails and folders and tasks and contacts. Thanks.

tools, email accounts, view or change accounts - click the button to make a
new data store, then set it as the default. You can remove the old one from
your profile by righting on it and choosing Close, after you restart
outlook.
