Outlook Contacts

[Mario]

Can someone please help me. I recently had to re-install
outlook and I can't seem to find my old emails and
address book entries. Is it stored in a particular file
name or has it been deleted?

You should be able to find the file mail.pst in the

c:\exchange folder. Go to file, open, outlook datafile -
navigate and point to mail.pst. Load and your old mails
and contact should return.

Just a comment on that -- the filename may be "outlook.pst" (the default
for Outlook 98 and later) or it may be some other filename with a .PST
extension. Also, the default location varies by Outlook version and
Windows version, not to mention that the user can move the .PST file
wherever he likes Look here for all the information you need on
backup and restoration of Outlook data:
