Default Need to restore PST from a backup -- Where do I put it ?

I'm not real familiar with OE so can you tell me how to set OE to use my PST
file as it's default (you said it did not use PST files). Thank you for your
response, but can you give me a little more info.

I recently restored an image of a HD and without OE 6 setup on it, another
group setup OE6 on it and now I need to put the CONTACTS back in Outlook
Express. I have found the PST file on the old backup of the pc but don't
know how to use it recover the contacts. When I look on the pc I don't
find
a PST file on it. The pc has XP Pro. Can someone tell me how to get the
contacts back into OE6 from the old PST file ?


OE doesn't use or read PST files; open Outlook, set your PST file as its
default and export the Contacts as a CSV file. OE's Address Book can import
from.
