Lost contacts, folders and messages after repair

[James Rulli]

I am running Outlook 2002 SP 2 on a fairly new Dell. I
was experiencing problems, so I ran the "Reapir" function
from the Microsoft Office installation disk. The repair
fixed the functionality of the program, but erased all my
e-mail messages, folders, address book and settings. I
was able to restore the settings and can access new email,
but all my old data is lost.

How can I restore my old address book, folders and saved
email?

Check the properties of yr current Personal Folder, to checks its name &
location.
Then Search, to include hidden files, for *.pst
If this finds a second *.pst (ie hopefully the origonal) then in OL
File/Open/Personal Folder and browse to its location.
