Windows 98 is corrupted on my computer so I have to blank out the hard drive and reload everything. I have sucessfully transfered all of my office data files to a Zip drive for reloading except the Outlook ones. I cannot open Outloook to access the files or archive them so I must just find them on the hard drive. A seach for .pst files found two files in
Windows\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook for both Outlook and its Archive. Double clicking on either file only opens a e-mail page. Is this the data file where my Contacts, Calendar, etc. is stored? If not, where is it or how would I find it?
 
These are the files indeed. To access it make sure it is on a read/write
medium and that the "Read Only" file property is not selected. You might
also want to do a search for pab-files if you did not store your contacts in
the Contacts folder in Outlook.
