Problem with damaged .pst file and Address Book

[Romulus]

Hello there everyone,

Two days ago I tried to receive my E-Mail using MS Outlook from Office 2000.
I never had a problem with it until now.
I have Outlook set to place the incoming E-Mail messages in their
corresponding folders in the Inbox automatically.
When I opened MS Outlook I received an error message stating that my .pst
file is damaged as well as my Address Book.
Now my Address Book is completely empty and my .pst file is non-usable. I
saved the damaged .pst file to another hard drive. The error message also
tells me to use the "Inbox Repair Tool", yet I cannot find such a tool
anywhere.

How can I recover all my E-Mail messages in that .pst file and my Address
Book?

Thanks in advance for your help.
Simon

Look for scanpst.exe. This is the Inbox repair tool
