I upgraded to Office 2003 and when I opened Outlook none of my email messages
are there? Did I lose them all?????? How do I get them back?? Please help.
Thanks.
 
Search for files with a PST extension. (If using Windows XP, you need to
ensure that you search for hidden/system files because the PST files will be
located in hidden/system directories.)
 
Never import Outlook .pst files into Outlook. Open them using
File->Open->Outlook Data File.

After furious head scratching, Mittu asked:

| Hi,
|
| You could search for '*.pst' files in your computer.
| (Goto Start>Search>All Files n Folders and click on More Advanced
| Options and select the first 3 boxes and then search).
|
| Use the import wizard to import the data into Outlook.
