Default How to recover contacts after restoring Outlook

Hi All,
I have Outlook 2003 on Windows XP Pro.

Recently I restored outlook after crash. The problem was that whenever
I started outlook it used to install office program and then crashing
by throwing error "... SETUP.CHM not found"

I solved that problem by starting office setup and then cancelling it
as soon as it starts (as instructed in MS KB)

I have recovered my .pst byt not the Contacts (and also calender,
notes).

How can I recover them, are they stored somewhere by default, can I
import them from default location?

cheers
Nirvana

They should be in the PST file. Might you have more than one PST that needs
to be recovered?

Thanx Vince,
Yes I do have many .pst files. And I assum that calendars etc. are in
the default Personal folder which is created by default.

I'll try to search for the .pst files and to recover them.
