When my hard drive got a bad boot record, I installed a
new one and loaded Windows XP Pro on the C: drive. My
old files now on my E: drive and I have transfered MY
Documents, etc. I can't find the current Outlook Address
Book, calender and email files however. My cd backup is
missing the last week and I would really like to get
those back. When I search for them, I get old versions
of .pst files but noting with a current date. Any
suggestions? Thanks!
 
Search again, ensuring that you are also searching hidden/system
folders.....
 
THANK YOU - I should have thought of that. I should also
have asked how to inport or merge them into the current
files. Any ideas? Thanks!

Click to expand...

In Outlook, click File>Open>Outlook Data File (or Personal Folders File) and
browse to the old PST. Then use drag-and-drop to move the items to your
current PST or simply change your default delivery to the old PST.
