Outlook 2003 won't start up

I just installed Office Professional 2003 on my home computer. When I try to
start Outlook, all I get is a message saying "Cannot start Microsoft Office
Outlook. Unable to open the Outlook window. The set of folders could not be
opened." I just want to import my email account and contact information from
Outlook Express into Outlook, but since I can't even get Outlook started that
is impossible.

First create a mail profile in the Mail applet in Control Panel.
