Help on 28JUL07 - I have Outlook 2003 on a Windows XP Media Centre Edition
2004. I have a login on my computer which has become corrupted. It has a
corrupted registry file. XP cannot open it. So I am using another login.
However, I have lost access to my Outlook data for my old login. How can I
transfer it?

The mail, or the actual configuration of Outlook?

The mail, contacts and diary data. I had not done much configuration so I do
not think I'll loose much.

Search the hard drive for your old PST file. Be sure to include hidden and
system folders in the search. The PST file holds all your data.

Thank you for that - I found it and it worked. What a relief.

From a while back I have some .dbx files from my Outlook Express which I
would like to import but it will not let me. I tried the route you suggested
for the PST file but no luck. Can you help?

Not really. I'd either ask in microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general or
look at www.insideoe.com.
