I have Office 2003 and the Windows XP SP2 File and Settings Transfer Wizard
is not offering to collect data from Office 2003. I recall with earlier
versions it did used to do this.

Is this a known bug?

Is there another way to transfer all my Outlook account info and Office
settings?

Thanks.

Take a look here, it may help:

the FSTW works well with Office 2003.

Thanks Milly. I have shared my PST with the Briefcase, however I cannot get
my accounts over.

Using the link you sent me, it says the account info is stored in the
registry, however it doesn't say where. Can you please advise me the key
and/or file to export/move to my laptop?

PS: One other thing - how can I transfer over the signatures? Basically I
just want Outlook to be copied in its entirety.
