"Reloaded?" What does that mean?
Unless you reformatted your hard drive, your Outlook data should be quite
intact.
The file you need is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's where all the
mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup or transfer:

I reloaded XP (and Outlook Express) on my PC. I have since lost all my
locally stored folders (and contacts). Is there anyway that they can be
recovered? Are they backed up anywhere when XP is reinstalled?
Thanks
Graham
