i updated to Office Small Business and Outlook 2007 installed automatically.
i imported my address book from Express 6
Now i discover
some of my contacts did not appear in 2007, and they were lost in 6
some of my messeges in the sent folder in 6 were lost not showed in 2007
some of my personal folders were lost in 6 & 2007

what can i do to find my contacts, my folders and my sent messages in 6 & 2007

i have a feeling that this problem exsist for many people and because i
loaded 2007 at such a late point in time - there should have been some type
of warning from MSN, for this problem during installation

Outlook may have installed with Office, but until you configure it, it is
inactive.
You dont have to accept the option to import anything from Express.
Though the corect procedure to port your data to Outlook is, within Outlook,
Import addresses. Then within Express export msgs

Your contacts will be within the Contacts Folder of Outlook, and your msgs
will be in the Inbox.
Enable the Folder/Tree View in Outlook, also set your View option to Msgs
with auto preview.
Also ensure the View is not set to unread mail.
Express doesnt use Personal Folders, Outlook does
