Outlook 2000 Address Book

[dksg]

I recently had to do a parallel re-install of Windows ME.
Prior to doing that, I RENamed my Program Files directory
to OLDPROG, so all my apps are still intact. After I
installed MS Office 2000, I realized that I didn't back-up
my address book-- my new installation has *nothing* in it.

Can someone tell me how to find my old address book and
tranfer it to my new install of Outlook??

Thanks

The file you need is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's where all the
mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup:

Russ--

As my grandfather used to say, "You're a gentleman and a
scholar." That did the trick-- thanks!
