Outlook 2002 to Outlook 2007

[Guest]

Source:
Windows XP Home SP2
Outlook 2002 SP3

Destination
Vista, Home Premium, 32 bit
Office Standard 2007, which was installed as an upgrade.
I did not install Office 2002. During Office 2007 installation, I put the
Office 2002 CD into the other optical drive. Office 2002 was NOT installed.

I made the mistake of configuring the email account on the Outlook 2007
account while the computer was connected to the internet. Now, I have many
new messages on the Vista computer, which I would like to retain. These
messages have been removed from the server.

1. How do I transfer the messages & calendar from the source to the
destination?

2. How do I merge the messages in the Outlook 2007 inbox with the messages [
to include those in the inbox of Outlook 2002?

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,
WC

You copy the OL2002 data files to some location on Vista, eg My Documents,
then in OL2007 Open the data file and copy data from old to new personal
folders
Do NOT import

Within OL, File>Open>Data File.....browse to location
Drag and drop, or copy / paste
You can leave old open, or close as you wish

Then you've probably lost some data.
