I attempted to set up Outlook 2002 as my email account, but was no longer
able to open my contacts, calendar, tasks, or notes. Each time I tried to
open the other folders, I got the message "Unable to display the folder.
Microsoft Outlook could not access the specified folder location. The folder
no longer exists."

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Office XP twice, but the error message
coninues. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Reinstalling won't help with configuration issues. See if your mail account
is properly configured and that is has a valid delivery location by going to
Control Panel-> Mail

If you want to start from scratch with a new mail profile see;
