Default Outlook Reinstall

Prior to reinstalling XP Pro, copied Docs and Settings folder to another
drive. Of course, it contained all my contacts, E-mails, etc. when you drill
down through the user name, app data, msft, outlook, etc. to find them.

Reinstalled XP, MSFT programs which included Outlook 2007. Whereas I could
see my Outlook files, archive files, etc. in Explorer prior to opening
Outlook the first time, they disappeared when I tried to point to them on the
backup drive. Moreover, it appears there is a different file extension for
these data files?

Help! and TIA.

Default Outlook Reinstall

If the data files are located on a backup drive, copy them to My Documents
folder, then within Outlook open the main data file at this location
