DISASTER! or not?

[Mordo]

Outlook on my machine recently tried to run the installer and asked
for the install disk. An error message also said that my MAPI32.DLL
file was corrupted or out of date. SO, I thought outlook was looking
for that .dll file on the disk. Instead it seems to have done a
reinstall and now I can't find any of my previous folder data, i.e.,
inbox, calendar, etc.

A reinstall won't normally wipe all of that data, right? Can anyone
tell me where this folder data is stored?

HEEEEEEEEEELLPPP!

depending on your version of windows, it's here:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook

search for *.pst, including hidden files and folders in the search.
