Outlook 2007 Beta to Outlook 2007 Regular
 

Helppppppp! I opened my Outlook 2007 beta today and had a message saying
that the Beta was now expired and I had to uninstall the software.

How do I recover all of my email folders, contacts, rules, messages, etc. ?

I tried to do an Export but it is now greyed-out. I am only able to receive
messages. I can't reply or export.

I do have a copy of the commercial version of Office 2007 that I was going
to install this week but I had no idea my Beta version was going to expire
today.

If I install the commercial version will it migrate my email data even
though the Beta has expired? If not, is there any way I can re-activate my
Beta version for one day so I can export my email data?

Please advise.

thx

There's no need to export. All your data can be used just fine in either OUtlook 2003 or the release version of Outlook 2007.

Thanks for the reply. I did install the official 2007 software and Outlook
found everything.
