Restoring Outlook .PST files

[Sam]

Like a good boy, I had saved all the Outlook files in
Document & Settings. After re-formatting my hard drive
and re-installing Windows, Office, etc., and copying all
the Outlook files back in place, Outlook now shows only
the default folders and no email. I have loaded the .pst
files, run scanpst.exe (no errors with 17 folders), run
the repair utility in Outlook, etc. etc. Why won't
Outlook read the files correctly ??? Please, any ideas
would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You copied to hd, turned off read only flag?
In OL File/Open/Personal Folders....browsed to yr pst?
You have checked size of yr pst to ensure it is the 'right one'?
