Hi Roady, and thanks.
The installation seems to have removed my pst file completely. There is a new blank one generated now, but no old outlook.pst anywhere on my PC. Installed Office 2007 Enterprise edition, onto a PC running Windows XP and Office XP professional. Jim "Roady [MVP]" wrote: Reconnect your pst-file by File- Open- Outlook Data File...

Open Windows Explorer and enter %UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook in the Address bar and click Go. I'll wager the old PST is there. It's a normally hidden folder. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

An OL installation cannot delete a data file, only user intervention can do
that. Search, to include hidden for *.pst "Jimmy" wrote in message ...

Well unfortunately, that appears to be incorrect.
My Contacts appear to have been permanently deleted by installation of 2007.. "DL" wrote: An OL installation cannot delete a data file, only user intervention can do that.

Never happens. There is end user error involved here, and there is more to
your story. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Jimmy" wrote in message news ![]() Well unfortunately, that appears to be incorrect.
