Recover from HD crash

[Dale Stewart]

now My HD crashed and has been replaced. I fortunately had a recent complete
system backup on an external HD. I have set up Outlook on the new drive from
my Office CD but I can not recover my Task, Calendar, Contacts, and Notes
folders from the backup drive. I get a message that:
"Command line argument is not valid. Verify the switch you are using".
I need these files desperately and it is frustrating to know that they are
on my external HD but I cannot access them. Incidently, if I import Outlook
from the external HD I get the same response.
