Outlook Files-Where Are They?

[Guest]

I have just installed a new computer running Windows xp (SP2).
Everthing is up and running with the exception that I cannot thed files in
Outlook for calender, contacts and e-mails etc on my old system which I wish
to copy and move to the new system.

Does anyone know where I might find these files? and what to look for in the
file names?

Outlook what?
- 97?
- 2000?
- XP?
- 2003?
- 2007?

Is your 'old system' up and running? If so - just use Outlook to ...
File --> Import and EXPORT the PST so you can copy it and File --> IMPORT
and Export on the new machine.

Otherwise - in general - do the following...

Start button --> RUN --> Type in:

%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook

The *.PST files are the Outlook data files.
