OLE upgrade to 2003 in XP environment

[Terry]

I have recently upgraded by old OLE 97 to OLE 2003 on an
XP platform. When I did the XP conversion/upgrade, I
cannot locate any of my e-mail after the year 2002. Does
anyone know where it might be residing so that I may
import it? Thank you. - Terry

Are you talking about Outlook or Outlook Express? Outlook comes in versions
from 97-2003. Outlook Express comes in versions from 4.x to 6.x. Check
Help->about to see what program you have.

You do mean Outlook, right, and not Outlook Express? You mention version
numbers that correspond to Outlook, but you say "OLE" which doesn't really
fit. Anyway, if you are indeed using Outlook, look for all files with a
..PST extension -- that's where Outlook stores its data. In Windows XP, some
..PST files may be located in hidden and system folders, so make sure you
search there as well.
