Salvaging Outlook data from hard disk for new PC installation

[rmayer99]

My PC's motherboard went belly up the other day. It was a Windows XP Home PC
running Office 2002. Now I have a new PC, same O/S, and I would like to, if
possible, recreate my email files. I can access my old disk but I can't boot
off of it. I have installed Outlook 2002 on my new PC successfully.

The question is, what files can I move from my old hard disk to my new PC in
order to recreate, as closely as possible, my old email files, folders and
settings?

Thanks in advance,

Rob from AX
