XP repaired did in fact repair my xp

just before completion it asked for my office xp cd in
order to access a file "pro.msi" When I put my office
disk in it could not find the file. A seach of that cd
and the windows xp cd revealed no such file. I cancelled
that step and repair finished.

THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT IT SEEMS TO HAVE OVERWRITTEN ALL
MY OUTLOOK AND MONEY 2002 data!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HEEEELP!!!

No, it likely did not overwrite your data. It should still be there.
That is unless you formatted your drive. First, are we talking about
Outlook or Outlook Express? Your files for both programs should be located
underneath c:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\. The
actual subfolder location will vary depending on the specific program you
are talking about. Let me know whether it is Outlook or Outlook Express and
I can guide you further. As far as money goes, I can't say for sure as I
don't use that program but it shouldn't be too hard to find.
