Need to reinstall WinXP
 

Hi,
I'm planning to reinstall Windows XP Home on my system as there are
currently too many conflicts and speed problems. The last time I did this I
seem to remember that I misunderstood the procedure I should follow to make
backups of all my Microsoft Outlook data - and so I ended up losing all my
appointments, reminders, tasks - and many, many important emails.

So, instead of making the same mistake again I was wondering if people here
would be able to offer me advice on making sure I (a) save all my Outlook
data and (b) successfully import it into Outlook again when the reinstall is
complete.

I'm running Office XP on Windows XP Home SP2.

Many thanks for any help.
