Outlook 2002 and 2003 do not have the ability to export your account
settings. You may want to set up Outlook Express and import the account
settings and then save them from OE. You can import them again into Outlook
once you are up and running.

| Thanks for answering, Milly ... however, outlook.pst is not going to
| preserve my email account information (servers, connections, userIDs,
| passwords, etc) ... that's the kind of thing I'm trying to figure out
| if Office 2003 is going to inspect, preserve and restore when it
| installs; I'm also wondering if it will do the same for other
| preferences ... like default document directory for Word, Excel ..
