I reformatted my hard drive. This is where my calendar for OUtlook 2007 is.
How do I send it back to the actual program residing on my hard drive?

Did you not make a backup of your pst file before re-formatting?

Hello. I thought I did, using the backup add on I downloaded from Microsoft,
but the calendar I backed up, or so I thought, is not the latest one. I have
my e-mail file and contacts file also backed up, so am hoping that works.
But meanwhile, the calendar on the internet is the correct one, so can I
download it back?

I don't think it's that easy. Go to your Calendar in Office Online and
there's a button that says "Subscribe to this calendar". That should show (I
think) your calendar in Outlook but it will be read-only. You then have to
copy all the data to your local calendar.

There is no "e-mail file" or "contacts file". In Outlook, everything - all
your mail, contacts, calendar, tasks, etc. - is kept in a single file. That
file resides on your hard drive. if you did not copy that file off-line prior
to wiping your disk, you have erased it all.

Thanks, both of you. I think I am guilty of backing up files on too many
external drives (for protection), so I hope I find the right one. I thought
when you did the backup, from the add on from Microsoft to back things up,
that you gave directions for specific directories for each of the contacts,
mail and psp local file (guess that is the main file) to go. So, is this
info. still applicable when I use that add-on.

Outlook doesn't use a file whose type is PSP. Its files are PSTs.

Of you mean the PFBACKUP add-in, then it all it does is copy the entire PST
(containing all your Outlook data) to a destination file system folder of your
choice. If that folder is on an external drive, then wiping your main drive
wont affect it. Get the data back by following the steps he
