OST and OAB conversion

[Guest]

Hi,
I was on an exchange server which account is no longer active. I have the
OAB and OST files saved, and could access them when I was using my old PC,
although the exchange account was inactive. Now I have changed my PC but can
no longer access the offline content. Is there any way to convert the OST /
OAB files - would like to have access at least to the global address list if
not anything else.
Thanks,

Not in your situation. once the exchange connection is lost, unless you
have Work Offline with the same profile active, your data is gone.

Ouch - can I not set up the same profile on a new PC without actually
connecting to the exchange server (which may or may not exist but I do not
have current access) to retrieve my data?
