Sorry Sue have I confused you, here we go.

I'm trying to import .pst file into O2003. I have installed PFB tool and
opened my 260307outlookbackup.pst file. This .pst file is made with PFB for
O2003. So, when I have opened it in O2003 haven't seen in that .pst file my
Contacts and Tasks folder. Now you told me to open Folder view and now I see
my Contacts and Tasks folders. I was using Mail view before.
My question now, how to "transfer" Tasks and Contacts into O2003? I'm used
to do this by opening "copy" file, this 260307outlookbackup.pst from
"BackupMyMails" folder, and than coping (dragging) mails, contacts, tasks...
into "original" Personal Folders, opened when I start the O2003.
So, I'm obviously doing things wrong. How to import correctly .pst file into
O2003?

thanks
Darko

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
