How did you migrate your data?

Well i just presumed that it would automatically pickup all the
address books and data and bring it across to the 2007 version when i
loaded it? It sounds from what your saying it doesnt?

Actually, it usually doesn't. It usually creates a new PST, giving you
empty folders. When doing an upgrade to OL 2007, you should create a new
mail profile and then either reuse your existing PST or open that old PST in
the new mail profile and move the contents from it to the new PST.
