I'm using Outlook 2007 at home and at work.

I've taken a copy of my work Outlook Directory and it's on an external
harddrive

I want to merge my work stuff onto my home pc so that I have all emails,
contacts, addresses etc on the one computer.

Can anyone help?

What does this mean? What directory did you copy? If by "Outlook Directory"
you mean the folder where you installed Outlook, then you have the wrong
folder. Outlook's data isn't stored there. See this for file locations:

If you did transfer the Outlook data (it would be in a file whose type is
".pst"), then simply open that PST at home in Outlook with File>Open>Outlook
Data File to access its contents.

Keep in mind, though, that taking company information off-campus may
constitute a violation of your company's IT policies, so be sure to get
explicit permission to take the data with you.
