Problem with importing *.pst archive in Outlook 2007.

[firefoxer]

I worked in Outlook 2007 for a period and kept all my data in "Outlook.pst".

Because of Windows crash I had to reinstall itself and Outlook 2007 (the same version). Successfully imopted "Outlook.pst" and problem now is that I have NO CATEGORIES (All notes in calendar are of same color ... all meetings. seems like they are of one category now).

Is it a Microsoft bug or what? How can I solve problem and restore my categories?

As posted here many many times, often more than once daily, do NOT use the
import function to open native Outlook data.
I suggest you create a new Outlook profile and attach the existing pst file
to it and see if that corrects things.

For your future information, here's how to do it properly:
