I had a similar problem with OE--couldn't do either a Typical or Advanced rebuild of data--and I ended up having to trash my "Database" (and maybe also the "Database Cache") file(s)--in Entourage, they're in the /users/myusername/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office X Identities/Main Identity directory. I found, however, that I couldn't just drag the files out of their directory to the desktop; OE still found them. So I copied them to a Zip, put the originals in the trash, then logged out and in (otherwise the trash said they were still "in use"), emptied the trash, and restarted OE. That fixed my problem; didn't need to reinstall OE. I did end up losing a day or two of mail (up to my last backup--I restored the database files from that).
