My computer associated a file with outlook and when I opened the file
outlook tried to open it. Now all my information in my notes and contacts
is missing. How do I get this information back? I am using oulook 2002.

Outlook uses a .PST file. Search your hard drive for all *.PST files. If
any are found go to the properties of the file, compare size and date, then
import this file. The file most probable will have the 2nd most recent
modified date and has a decent file size to it, the existing PST file will
have the latest modified date yet if it's empty the file will only be around
36KB. Make a note of the directories then import the older size file into
the existing PST file.
