Outlook 2003 Calendar from XP to Vista

[StudioGal]

Another question ... I made the decision to start fresh with my new Vista
system, rather than have all my old email hanging around.

I successfully copied my Contacts from my old XP system by exporting to a
contacts.pst file, then importing that file on the Vista system.

Is it possible to also get all my Calendar items moved over in a similar
fashion?

THANKS!

Can you open your original PST file and copy the items out of it?

It would have been a whole lot simpler to have copied your old pst (with
outlook closed) to your Documents folder on Vista. Then within OL opening
that pst, and drag & drop whatever required from old to new

Is it too late to do that? Figures that I did it the hard way!!

Go back to the original PPC and copy the original PST. It contains all your
Outlook date: e-mail, contacts, calendar, tasks, the works. Do not use
export/import.

Do I remove what's there now (Contacts, my email settings etc.) - and if so,
how?

No, theres no need, open the old pst within OL copy data required from old
to new, once done close the old pst (if you want)

All right, I'm going to give this a shot ... THANKS.
