Outlook 2000

I am trying to setup outlook so I can use it off line , I am using W2k and Office 2000 Pro , I have looked at the help option in outlook and the information it is giving me is not whats available in my outlook . I have tested it on another W2k laptop and my friend is having the same problem . We have reinstalled outlook selecting all available options , first for outlook install and then for all of MS office 2000 pro , still with no success . Can you help
