I believe OL needs to be set up, with the pst files, before you can import
in OE
But then you still havent stated whether you were actually using OL before

Thanks,
I have outlook express on my reformatted "C" Drive. I was able to reimport
my address from were I had backed them up in a separate address file. At a
later stage I dumped the contents of my "C" drive on to my "F" drive. I
now
whant to reinstall from the "F" drive. When I try to do this it only seems
to
read my "C" drive. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Assuming outlook, and not outlook Express, you open the pst(s) in OL
The pst's should be located on a hd, and the read only flag off.
PS: Outlook doesnt use the Address Book, so are we really referring to
OL
not OE?

I have reinstalled outlook express. When I look for my past email I
can
find
the .Pst files on my back ups but how do I reinstall my received, sent
emails. I have reinstalled my address book

Many thanks
