Too large file hanging in Outlook 2002 outbox; can't open to delete

I tried to send a photo-laden Powerpoint file that is now hanging in my Outbox. I suppose the spooler has it. It's causing other email to hang there as well. When I try to open the item, I receive a "Can't Open Item" box. How can I get hold of that file to delete it? Thanks!

Place Outlook in Off-line mode by using File-> Work Offline. Restart Outlook
and you should be able to delete it now. Don't forget to put Outlook back
online!
