I have the appointments, but any that were recurring, have lost that setting.
Is there anyway to get this to carry over to the new computer? Thanks so much! |

Never import - copy your .pst file to a location of your choice (not the
default location - never overwrite a .pst file) and then use Outlook-File-Open-outlook data file. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Thanks, Milly.
What all is included in the .pst file? I was export/importing Calendar/Inbox/Tasks/Notes/ Sent/ etc. |

Making a backup is as simple as copying the PST while Outlook is closed. Restoring that backup is as simple as opening the file in Outlook with FileOpenOutlook Data File and copy the information in it. -- Brian Tillman |

I cannot tell all of you how much I apprecaite this help. On Easter Sunday,
none-the-less.... Another angle of this, now if I open the .pst file with the new installation of Outlook 2003, will this nuke all of the data I have already imported or will it create duplicates? I have already imported the Calendar, Inbox, contacts, everything... I would hate to have everything duplicate and then be totally messed up!!! |

It gives you a completely separate set of folders from which you can then copy to your main default folders. If you can, delete the items you added by importing and start over. -- Brian Tillman |

How would I delete everything I have imported already. This is what I want
to do. Also, you are saying that I would need to copy everything over to my main folders. If I delete everything before opening the .pst, do I still need to copy stuff over? I want to do the cleanest re-creation of data possible. Are we sure that this process will bring over the recurrance of the appointments? This is my only hang-up at this point. Well, that and all of my attachments to sent items thatare missing. Sorry to have one question after another, but I am not asking complete questions, I guess. |

The easiest way would probably be to switch to a list view, use Field Choose to add the Modified dat, then sort on that date. The imported stuff should all have the Modified date matching the import date and time. Also, you are saying that I would need to copy everything over to my main folders. If I delete everything before opening the .pst, do I still need to copy stuff over? You don't have to copy anything over if you just want to use the second PST as-is and leave its data in it. Most people like to have their data reside in a single PST, but it's not really required. Are we sure that this process will bring over the recurrance of the appointments? This is my only hang-up at this point. Well, that and all of my attachments to sent items thatare missing. When I copy items between calendars, the recurrance goes with it, so I don't know why it wouldn't for you.. -- Brian Tillman |
