Can someone please help me. I recently had to re-install
outlook and I can't seem to find my old emails and
address book entries. Is it stored in a particular file
name or has it been deleted?

You should be able to find the file mail.pst in the
Click to expand...
c:\exchange folder. Go to file, open, outlook datafile -
navigate and point to mail.pst. Load and your old mails
and contact should return.
 
Just a comment on that -- the filename may be "outlook.pst" (the default
for Outlook 98 and later) or it may be some other filename with a .PST
extension. Also, the default location varies by Outlook version and
Windows version, not to mention that the user can move the .PST file
wherever he likes :-) Look here for all the information you need on
backup and restoration of Outlook data:
