Thought I'd followed all the instructions I found here for backing up my inbox and contacts. I exported both files to a backup folder using the "import/export" function under the "File" menu. Exported them both as "comma separated files." Not a good way at all to make a backup. It's easy to make a backup of your Outlook data. With Outlook closed, just make a copy of your PST. That's it. All done. -- Brian Tillman |

Remove the read-only attribute (right-click, choose Properties and uncheck "Read only"). Start Outlook. CLick FIleOpenOutlook Data File, browse to the PST you copied, select iot, and click Open. Either drag-and-drop data to your current delivery PST or make the copied PST the delivery location in the "Delivery new e-mail to the following location" drop-down at the bottom of ToolsE-mail AccountsNext. If you do this, you'll need to restart Outlook for it to take effect. -- Brian Tillman |
