UpGrading from 2000 to 2003

Hello,
I've just installed 2003, all I did was point outlook to my old pst file and
most things seem to work. However, the address book is not there. Is this
separate to the pst file? Also seem to have got into a bit of a mess with
the personal folders, I now have 2, each item now appears twice ie clicking
on tasks on the shortcut bar brings up Tasks and 'Tasks in Personal Folders'
under 'My Tasks' .
Suggestions anyone??

Many thanks

Just figured out why there are 2 personal folders! still scratching my head
over the address book!

You need to set your Contacts Folder as an email address book in its
properties.
