Hello
I've just reinstalled XP Pro on my Tecra M2 and Office 2003 (acedemic version). Prior to doing this I thought I took enough precautions, exporting my contacts, inbox, sent items and some other grouped email folders and calendar via the export mode as backup .pst files and copied my archive.pst file to to CD. I also used the save my office setting wizard so it would all look and work the same on a reinstall. Obviously I copied my docs also. Reinstall of XP went well, internet and home network all connected fine. Reinstalled Norton AV 2006 and then installed Office. I then used th ewizard to import the settings. I think now that I might have jumped the gun on that one. When I try to open Outlook an error meeage comes up saying the outlook.pst file is missing from the use/docs & setting...etc location. I thought by importing the settings I would not have to set up my emial account all over again as well as the other office applications looking and functioning the same. I have removed Office throught he add/remove option and reinstalled but it seems that XP has remebered my earlier use of the settings wizard - if in fact that is the problem. Word worked fine - I tried this befor Outlook an dthat activated Office with MS. Sorry if this is a bit long winded but thought it better to try and record everything - can anyone suggest what I may do to be outlook working - I did not save a outlook.pst file from before the reinstall of XP Pro. Thanks you - Eddie |
