Outlook problems

My send button was missing, I tried to remedy that. Along the way I somehow
created a new Outlook account(?) and this wiped out all my saved messages and
address book. Is there a way to restore my previous acct/info? I am not
sure what I did and would appreciate any help.
 
You may mean new Profile, search to include hidden for *.pst you may well
find a large file named outlook.pst
Then within Outlook, File>Open>Pesonal Folders........browse to and open
this data file

In Outlook, click File>Open>Outlook Data File. Do you see any PSTs in the
browser dialogue? If so, select the one you're not using and click OK. See
if it contains the data you seek. If so, click Tools>E-mail Accounts>Next and
in the "Delivery new e-mail to the following location" drop-down at the lower
left, select the PST you just added. Click Finish, stop and restart Outlook.
 
Thank you, Thank you!

Thank you! I was about to cry! I should have posted a question before I
tried fixing it myself.
