Backing up Master Catagories List
Hi, Outlook 2003 w/all updates on XP with all updates.
I had to repair Office, unrelated to Outlook, and in the process lost all my custom catagories in the Master Catagories list. I manually added them all back in, so all is fine now - but is there a way to back up the Master Catagories list? Or, is the list included in the ..PST file? If so, can I copy my .PST flies off to an external drive, then copy them back after doing something like an Office repair? Thanks, Marti
