Deleted Profile in Outlook 97

[Mark]

Stand alone PC - Outlook 97 (no Exchange Server) - Win XP

I have just deleted an users Outlook Profile.

He now informs me that he forgot to back his contacts up.

Is there anyway retrieve his contacts or restore his profile fully??

Would an undelete program work for his profile?

Many Thanks

Mark

Deleting a profile does nothing to the data. The data file is still there.
Just create a new profile and use that data file.
The file you need is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's where all the
mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup or transfer:
