transfering contacts, caledar, and email to new installation

M

I had to reinstall XP Pro and Office 2002 on a new hard
drive because of an "imminent disk failure" message.
Everything is running ok on the new drive now, but I
haven't been able to get the new installation of Outlook
to load my old contacts, calendar, or emails.

I have copied two data files retrieved from the old drive:

outlook.pst
default.wab

these two files have been copied into folders in
the "documents & settings/application data/microsoft
dirctory. Are there other files I need to copy? Does
this method work at all, or do I have to use an
export/import menu command?
