I think you need to start at the beginning and explain what you are trying to accomplish and where you're starting from. Are you trying to back up data? Import data? Why?

About these steps. I'm copying my mails, tasks, contacts like that. Or am'I
doing this completely wrong. :-(
How can I import .pst file with mails, contacts, tasks without doing this
"strange combinations"?

yes I did that. I have Inbox, SentItems, Junk E-mail, Drafts,
DeletedItems,
Outbox and my specific folders.

Still sounds like you might be looking at the Mail navigation pane, not the
Folder list.

They are not there as used to be in O2000. Normally in O2000 I had
Contacts
and Tasks "folder".
What I did in O2000 is:
1. open .pst file , copy mails, tasks and contacts to the new one
2. close that copy of old .pst file which is empty after that.

I'm confused. You said you used the Personal Folders Backup tool to make a
copy of your .pst file. What do these steps have to do with that?

How do you know the contacts and tasks aren't there? Did you display the
entire contents of that .pst file in the Folder List?

Hi

have problem with backuping my contacts and tasks. I have reinstalled
windows and Office 2003 and before that have backuped my mails,contacts,
tasks, everything with "personal folder backup" by MS.
Now I have my mails back but do not have Contacts and Tasks in that ..pst
file. Where I can find it?

When I was doing this with older version of Office 2000 its personal
folder
backup prgm did everything in one .pst file, mails, contacts and tasks.

Anyone knows this better than me how to get my contacts and tasks back
cause
I'm hopeless.

Thanks

Darko
