I installed a new hard drive in my desktop an dshave my old hard drive
running as an external drive. I've reloaded my software and opened and set up a new Outlook account (identical to the old one, just on the new hard drive). I need to move all my old emails, calendar and contacts to the new drive, but I can't find anything that's a PST file on my old drive (I did a search on ".pst" and it showed nothing). I do have a 966 KB Outlook file but it says it's a NK2 file. Someone help me reconnect with my old data, please. Thanks. .. . |

Usually (drive letter):\Documents and settings\(user)\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook. Note that you'll have to set 'Control panel|Folder Options|View' to show hidden files and folders.

I had already done this. And I am viewing hidden files. Nothing in
J:\Wiley\Documents and Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook is a .pst file. (J is my old hard drive that I'm now using as an external drive.)

Default path
\Documents and settings\(user)\LocalSettings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook. you are looking in; J:\Wiley\Documents and Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\ You appear to be looking in the incorrect folder "Wiley" wrote in message ...

As DL says, wrong folder. What you want is:
J:\Documents and settings\Wiley\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook Hal -- Hal Hostetler, CPBE -- Senior Engineer/MIS -- MS MVP-Print/Imaging -- WA7BGX http://www.kvoa.com -- "When News breaks, we fix it!"
