MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / March 2008Import saved (Office Data File)
When I reinstalled Outlook I saved my Contacts to a Office Data File, how do I import them back into My Outlook? Thanks for any Help...Bob You never import a native outlook data file. In Outlook, File->Open->Outlook Data File. Copy what you want to your current default .pst file and close the old one when you are done.

Use the File->Open from Outlook. SignatureMilly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Open Outlook and use File, Open Outlook Data file to open and move the list to your Contact folder. You did not lose your original pst file when you reinstalled. Just choose the old pst file to open in OL and you can use it. It will have all your contacts and other folders. > When I reinstalled Outlook I saved my Contacts to a Office Data File, how do > I import them back into My Outlook? > Thanks for any Help...Bob |
