Recovering Outlook Contacts After Windows Reinstallation
Hi, I am running XP SP3 and Outlook 2007. After reinstalling XP I realized
that I forgot to backup my contacts. I thought I should be looking for a ..pst file. When I recovered outlook.pst and inserted it into c:\documents and settings\userprofile\local settings\application data\microsoft\outlook and then opened outlook, I got a message saying that the .pst file is not a personal folders file. Please help. Thank you.

Why are you reposting the same question instead of reading the reply to your
earlier post? Do you need help using newsgroups? -- Russ Valentine "a_ryan1972" wrote in message ... Hi, I am running XP SP3 and Outlook 2007.

You should be using a newsreader not a web interface.
