saving messages after format

[steven]

I want to format my hard drive but don't want to lose any
of my emails, contacts, and everything else in outlook
2002. Is there any way I can save everything and restore
them after re-installing WinXP and OfficeXP?

Steven,

I think the following article has the details you need to backup and restore
your Outlook data.

Hope this helps.
