merging .PST files
I am not totally confident I can do this on my own. I mean I messed it up
so how do i think I can fix this. I would appreciate it if i could call you
and walk through it with someone as knowledgable as you.

Easy to resolve.
First make sure both PST files are open in your profile and that you know
the name and location of the file you want as your default delivery store,
then designate it a such he
1.. On the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts.
2.. Click View or change existing e-mail accounts, and then click Next.
3.. In the Deliver new e-mail to the following location list, select
where you want new messages delivered. (If you never specified a custom
display name for this .pst file, you probably see two entries for Personal
Folders files. Select the one that is not highlighted if you want to
change to the other. When you click the arrow to show the list of files,
click the second Personal Folders entry in the list.)
Then just drag and drop any entries from your old default PST file into
your new one. Once you're done, just R click and close the PST file that
is no longer your default.

Before we waste a lot of time giving you instructions that may or may
not apply, start by specifying your Outlook version and decide which PST
file you'd like to keep as your default.

I made a huge mistake....
In restoring my .pst files I attached to the incorrect one and now i
have a lot of information in the incorrect one that I need to have
moved to the correct one. Providing I even know what the correct one
is...then there are emails still on the email server that need to be
downloaded also.
Can someone please walk me through what I need to do to clean up this
herendous mess! Please?
Thank you
