I have a computer that has Outlook on it and I am going to be importing all
of the folders, contacts, etc to another computer that has Outlook on it.
The problem is that the computer I will be importing to already has folders,
contacts, etc. These are old however and I want to keep all of the existing
folders and contacts from the existing one. Any suggestions on how to do
this? I have backed up the existing Outlook into a PST file and I know how
to import if the Outlook I am importing to doesn't have anything in it, but
just not sure if I should do anything different since it already has
information. I hope this isn't too confusing.

Thank you for any recommendations.

Here is an excellent site to check on backing up from and restoring to
Outlook:

This is an excellent website and will probably answer most of the questions
that would come up for most people when they use Outlook.
