Contacts & Calender folder gone after files & settings transfer wi

[Guest]

I use Outlook for my contacts & calendar, and Outlook Express for email. I
tried to migrate settings from old computer to new, using the files &
settings transfer wizard. Had multiple problems. ended up filling up entire
hard drive of new computer. When attempting access the Outllok Calendar &
Contacts folders a message comes up that says: "Unable to display folder.
The folder no longer exists." My contacts and calendar went into Outlook
Express.

I reformated my hard drive and reinstalled Office. Was successful in
transfering my office file to the new computer - but the same message still
comes up for the "folders" in Outlook. They are missing and will not display
(although the caldendar settings did transfer to Outlook because I can bring
up the Outlook Today folder.

Copy over the pst-file (don't overwrite any existing ones!) and configure
Outlook with it through;
Control Panel-> Mail-> button E-mail Accounts-> Next-> Delivery Location
settings at the bottom.
