What about the Files & Settings Transfer Wizard? Will this method corrupt a
..pst file?
Got xp home on a slave drive.
Got xp pro freshly installed on a master and I want to get outlook over FROM
xp home on the slave.
Same copy/version of outlook on both drives.... slave will be formatted once
all is tested.
Thanks.

Importing is bad but the FASTW is not an import. It simply places items
where your programs will likely find them, such as your .pst file, among
other attributes (like accounts settings transfer, etc.)
