I will go take another look but perhaps I didn't make it clear, I can gain
access to the data from my dead laptop simply by accessing eh HD as you
would a usb drive etc on my desktop but I can't go into programs such as
Outlook to perform the backup you talk about.
I will go look again at the import / export options in Outlook on the
desktop and see if I can do what I want to.
Thanks for your help though,
Phil

Hi Phil,
Within Outlook, select the file pull down menu. Within this menu you will
find export and import. You want to export to a file. The next selection
is of course Personal Data file. PST. Move on and follow the selections
from here. Its quite simple. Note: be sure to select personel folder file at
the top of list view and to check the box that asks if you want to include
all sub folders. Also don't worry about passwords. Continue on and select to
place your file on the desktop. The default I believe is backup.pst, but you
can call it TodaysDate.pst or anything you like. You can then cut and paste
this file into your thumb drive or your iriver or your zenstone and take it
over to your new computer. With MS Outlook not running and once inside the
Outlook folder, I.E C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name \Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook. select the original pst file
and call it OldOutlook.pst and rename your TodaysDate.pst as Outlook.pst You
may have to do this twice if you have two identities. But I don't think you
will find it too difficult.

Subject: [access-uk] Outlook.pst files
Hi,
Following on from my emails of a week or so ago about the death of my
Toshiba laptop I have taken it to a friendly local pc repair shop who reckon
the graphics chip has gone and so the best they could do was harvest the
hard drive for me and put it in a USB cradle so at least I've got access to
my data.
One of the things I want to do is grab my emails, addresses etc from outlook
on the Tosh and import them into Outlook on the desktop I'm using for now.
I have found the outlook.pst file from the Tosh HD but what I'm not sure of
is where I put it on the desktop local drive to import it into outlook.
I also have 2 identities in Outlook on the desktop, mine and my wife's, I
am wondering if copying over the Toshiba .pst file will in any way interfere
with my wife's profile?
Does that make sense, I hope so, and I hope someone can help, I have been
trawling the Outlook help system but to no avail.
Your help gratefully received,
Cheers,
Phil
