Question about Outlook Express

I have Outlook 2011 for Mac and it tells me that to add an email account, go to tools then accounts. The problem is there is no accounts for me to click on. The tools menu only lets me access; My Day, Import, Export, Sync Services, Schedules, Mailing list, Progress, Errors and the Online/Offline mode. HELP PLEASE!!! ( In the tools menu there is also Out of Office and Public Folders but I cannot click on those options)
