I ordered a trial CD of Office 2003 Professional and installed it as an
upgrade to my Office XP Small Business Edition. When I opened Outlook for
the first time, I clicked on my Contacts and they were all gone. What do I
do to get my contacts back? This trial is only for 180 days, what will
happen to all of my files that were created in Office XP SBE?

Thanks for any help you can give.

All of your data, including Contacts, is stored in a file with a .PST
extension. Search your hard drive for all .PST files (if you use Windows
2000 or XP you'll need to add hidden folders to your search) and when you
find the right one, add it to your profile via Control Panel | Mail | Data
Files.
