Why will my Email from 13/11 to 1/1/06 be missing but all previous were
installed. Obviouysly these were the archived items but i cannot find the
more recent ones even tho i have some pst files (i think these are the
archived ones.

Also missing address book. I did also take a copy of "C" drive onto D drive
but still no joy. Some files i tried to resorre say not a win 32 file.

Can any one help me ?

All OL mail and addressess are contained in the pst file(s)
by default the archive is named archive.pst
What happened may depend on exactly how you restored

YOur active .pst file is a hidden file. Enable searching hidden/system
files and then look for the most recent .pst file. Open it in Outlook - do
NOT import.
