Default Migrating contacts

I have installed Windows XP and all software (including Outlook 2003) on to
a new hard disk but have retained the old hard disk in the computer. I now
need to migrate my contacts from the old hard disk to the new hard disk.
How can this be done please?

Thanks.

Bill

Default Migrating contacts

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:
