All OL data contained within the pst file
http://www.howto-outlook.com/howto/backupandrestore.htm Basically copy pst to cd, then to HD, do not overwrite any existing pst. Ensure read only flag is off, Then in OL FileOpenData File......browse to this pst. Copy data to the new pst This assumes you were using OL on the old PC If you were using OE you need to import your data to OE first, on the new PC.
