Hello
To save Outlook Express info I saved the files found at C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Identities\{BD8EBE007A33}\Microsoft\Outlook Express,then when I need to format the harddrive I can replace the applications files without having to input the info from scratch. I have recently installed Microsoft Office 2000 and now use the Outlook email,contacts and calendar programs I would like to make a backup of the address book and other files that go with the Office software.I looked through the C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\there is an Office and Outlook folder but could not make heads or tails of them.
Any help will be appreciated

I found one pst file but I don't think that is the address, comtact, or calendar.
Any other ideas?
Thanks anyway

All Contact, e-mails, calendars, journal entries, notes, tasks etc. connected with Outlook are contained in the PST file. There can be more than one if you archive files etc., but the extension is PST.

ok I'll save it and see what happends.There was very little info in the pst file, all computer lingo, I have over a 100 addresses and contacts and would think the pst file would be larger.I searched the harddrive for *.pst files and found only one. Outlook has asked if I wanted to archive and I told it yes.
Thanks again
