Answer is posted here daily. You would never import. Why would you imagine
that a CSV file or WAB is in play? Outlook uses neither. The file you need is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's where all the mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored. Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup or transfer: http://www.slipstick.com/config/backup.htm http://www.howto-outlook.com/Howto/backupandrestore.htm http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...771141033.aspx -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Pat" wrote in message ...

Both have Microsoft Office 2007 You need to copy the Outlook.pst file from the old computer to a flash drive (or other medium) and then copy/move that to the hard drive of the new computer. You can then OPEN it (File - Open - Outlook Data File) with Outlook 2007 on the new computer. PJ White |
