Default Designate default folder to be on upon opening Outlook

I seem to recall that in OE, and as is with Windows Mail, a 'default' folder
(inbox) was in place for the opening of the mail client. But I am not able
to find where to configure this in Outlook 2003.

Is there a way to do this? Right now I have to click on the inbox in order
to read new incoming messages.

doonboggle,
Open Outlook 2003 TOOLS Options Other tab In the General Section select
Advance Options Button Startup in this Folder Browse to and select Inbox
OK your way out of wizard Close and Restart Outlook.

If you want to go back to seeing the Outlook Today page at startup Switch
back to opening Outlook from the Personal Folders, instead of Inbox.
