I just had Windows Xp installed and I do not know how to
import my old E mail addresses etc. from old data to my
new windows 2000 office program. The installer said the
material I want is in old data but the titles are not
specific enough for me to recognize the file. I am sure
this is a common problem can someone give me step by step
info so I can retrieve it.
 
Are you sure you're using Outlook from the Office suite of programs, and not
Outlook Express? The reason I ask is that Outlook/Office are not free and
do not come with Windows like Outlook Express does (though your computer
manufacturer may have pre-installed Office for you, of course).

If you are indeed using Outlook and not OE, look here for all the
information you need on backup and restoration of Outlook data:
