Copy E-Mails and Address Book

[Deon]

Hi there,

I had to format my HDD and tried to make sure that I have copied all my
Outlook files:

outcmd.dat
Outlook.FAV
Outlook.NK2
Outlook.srs
OutlPrnt

Do these files include my messages & address book?

I will really appreciate your help.

No, and I would have thought you would have noticed how SMALL all those
files are, so they couldn't possibly contain your emails and address book.
You need to copy your pst file as well. If you've formatted your HDD
already, then it's gone.

Hi there,

I did notice the file sizes but just had a little hope.

Thanx again!
