I just installed Office XP, and I mistakingly used the
wizard that loads automatically the first time Outlook is
run. Then, I entered the wrong info for the exchange
server. Eveytime I start Outlook, it says, "Your
Microsoft Exchange Server is unavailable." If I click
retry I get the same thing, of course, and if I click
cancel, Outlook shuts down. The third option is 'work
offline.' When I click this, it says, "Cannot start
Microsoft Outlook. Your profile is not configured." Then,
it quits. Does anyone know of a way to get out of this
deadlock? Frustrating!

Thank you!
