Send/receive is not working in Outlook 2003 - nothing happens

Guest

I started my computer in the morning and got a message that MS Office
Professional 2003 wasn't working because a file was missing. I think got
Outlook to open (it still had 2 email accounts configured, while the 3rd was
missing but I added it).

I tested the email accounts, and all tests completed successfully.

When I attempt to send/receive (through the tool menu, F9 or clicking the
send/receive button) nothing happens. No error message, nothing.

I attempted a detect & repair, followed by a reinstall, but received the
following message:

A required installation file SKU011.CAB could not be found.

Any help? Is it possible to uninstall and then reinstall without losing the
hundreds of emails saved in my Outlook?

Yes, reinstalling doesn't affect any data you've got stored. Once repaired
rename the srs-file of your mail profile to .old to reset the Send/Receive
settings.

Thanks...

I'm not sure how to do that. Am I able to repair this myself? Where is the
file located and/or how to I access my mail profile?

Sorry... I wish I knew more than I do. Thank you,
