Backing up MS Office Personal folders to CD

[Anthony M]

Can anyone help me?

I need to reformat my hard drives and would like to
create a backup, on CD, so I can reinstall my e-mails,
calendar, and contacts once I have my PC back in shape.

I have tried archiving to another drive and then copying
the archive file to CD but I get an error message telling
me I can't do this or I copy the archive file accross and
the file is empty.

I have also downloaded "backup" from the Microsoft
website & copied that file to CD.
Only problem with that was that I don't know how to
restore the information from the back up file..?

Perhapse you know how to restore from a "backup" and can
help?
