I upgraded my PC to Office 2003. The problem is that I cannot open my Outlook. It just freezes up as it it trying to load up. Anyone have the same problem? Thanks!
 
which OS do you use?
the rest of the suite works properly?
how did you set your mail options and data files?
Maybe Outlook tries to connect to an inexisting - or offline - server... there are a lot of possibilities

Make sure the Outlook process is not running is the Process tab under task manager. I have the same issue if I open Outlook and then close it I am unable to reopen it until I go into the task manager and kill the Outlook.exe process. It then opens fine. Hope this helps.
 
To get my outlook to work I deleted my outlook profile and reloaded office. It worked fine after that. Thanks!
