Default importing saved files

I had a techi save my data files (including Outlook) from a locked up system.
He saved to the hard drive of my new computer and I'm just not able to
import. I've tried everything! Can someone help?

What you tried and what happened remain a complete mystery. Did you expect
help when you post no information?
You should never import Outlook data files.
Just open them.
Here are the detailed instructions:

Why did you bother to respond at all?? Your smart ass response was of no
help. You must be a very lonely, miserable person. Good luck to you.

Russ told you the truth, no matter how hard it may be for you to swallow.
You posted nothing someone might use to answer your question, like your
Outlook version, for starters. It's alwo apparent you never bothered to
search this newsgroup because the answer is posted nearly daily.

You have "tried everything!" Try listing a few... If you had bothered to
read Russ' response, you would have seen that he gave you the answer. Yeah!
I know! Read is a 4-letter word.
