How to synchronize contacts/addressbooks froom Office 97 to 2003?

[RAG]

I just updated to Office 2003. I can no longer find my Outlook/Office 97
address books or contacts. I understand this is a common problem. Any help?

Thanks.

Hi,

If you upgraded from Outlook 97, it's very possible that your addresses are stored in a Personal Address Book (.PAB file). If you find that your email and calendar items are still there,
then you should seach your entire hard drive for all *.PAB files. Once you locate the Outlook .PAB file, you can then import it back into Outlook be referring to the following Knowledge
Base article.
