Outlook Address Book

[Dale]

I recently had a motherboard crash. I have another
computer up and running. I have my hard drive from the
crashed computer running as a slave in the new computer. I
have set my email up on the new computer and thought I
could just import all my contact and email addresses from
the hard drive that I took from my crashed computer. The
problem is I can't find where Outlook stores the
addresses. Can anyone tell me where I might search for
them, what the file is named, etc.

Thanks

The file you need is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's where all the
mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup:

Note: Do not import your PST file. Simply copy and reuse it.
