I recently had to restore my PC to its original settings, so lost my
installation of MS Outlook of 2002. I've now re-installed it and managed to
find all my old emails but how to I get my Contacts/Address Book back please?
I'm using Windows ME.

All Outlook data is kept in the same file. The file you need to 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:
