I had to move my primary hard drive into another computer. It is now running
as a slavein the new computer. I'm unable however, to find my calendar and
contacts from Outlook 2003 when I open the program on the new computer. If I
attempt to open the program from the F drive (the drive assigned in the new
computer to the hard drive that was moved from another computer) it tells me
the program is not installed. If I open Outlook 2003 from the C drive of the
new computer, of course, it doesn't find the old calendar and contacts. I
would appreciate any and all assistance in finding my calendar and contacts.
I do not use Outlook for my email.
 
Open Outlook from your new drive where you installed Office. Then use
File->Open->Outlook Data file and point it to your .pst file (hidden file)
on your old drive. If you intend to keep the old drive as a slave, there is
nothing more you need to do.
