Import/Export Outlook Settings & Calendar

[JNJ]

I need to move an existing user's files from one system to a new box. The
original has Office XP Pro, the new has Office 2003 Pro.

I've exported their rules but I need to somehow export their e-mail accounts
and calendar, then import them into the new Outlook 2003 install.

I'm not seeing an option for exporting e-mail accounts at all nor do I see
an easy way to do this for the calendar.

Tips?

Outlook 2003 does not have the option to export accounts.

for everything else, just copy the .pst file to the new machine, delete the
..pst file that was newly created and then open Outlook, point it to the
copied .pst file and everything should be the same.

Importing .pst files breaks any number of things, including links between
contacts and journal, custom forms, received dates, etc. Import = BAD!

Outlook 2003 does not have the option to export accounts.

I'm not looking to export from 2003 but rather from XP. Are they exportable
in Outlook XP?

No, neither Outlook 2002 nor 2003 offers the export option.
