Combine Duplicate Folders in Outlook 2002

[Erik S.]

I recently imported my Outlook folders onto another
computer... I now have duplicate folders (i.e. Contacts,
Inbox, etc.
How do I combine them into 1 and delete the ones I don't
need?

Drag the items in the ones you don't want into the ones you do. Once done,
close the PST you just emptied. Now you have one set.

By the way, import does not make two sets of folders, it includes the
contents of one PST into your existing PST. What exact steps did you take
to get your old messages to your other PC?
