I didn't see one note that my Microsoft Outlook 2003 was going to be deleted
along with all my addresses, and special e mail letters. The technician helped me install OUTLOOK EXPRESS however, here's the question: If I install Micro Outlook 2003 temporarily, will get see my old E mail and addresses? |

You don't provide enough information for us to help you. But that won't stop
me from guessing. How and why was Outlook 2003 removed from your PC? If it was simply uninstalled, then the pst file (probably called "outlook.pst") with all of your messages, contacts, calendar stuff will likely still be on your PC. Just look for a file that has a pst extension (you have to be able to view hidden/system files). If you can find that file, then yes, you will see your old e-mail and contacts if you re-install Outlook and configure it to point to that file. I'm assuming you weren't in a corporate environment using Exchange. If so, that's a different problem. Tim "Jon C." Jon wrote in message ...

I agree with Tim. If you upgraded from Office 2003 to Office 2007, then the
..pst should still be intact. Personally, I think it was a big mistake to remove Outlook from S&T. However, Vista's Windows Mail is a big improvement over Outlook Express though I presume you must be using Windows XP which is why you now use OE? You should be able to Open OE and under the file menu, Import all your old emails and addresses from the pst. Terry "Jon C." Jon wrote in message ...

This reply is for Tim and Terry: Thanks guys.
Before I installed Home and Student Office 2007 (XP Pro SP2) I deleted Microsoft Word and its associated programs. I just didn't realize that Microsoft Outlook 2003 was part of that. So when I went to check e mail.....it was gone. Right now Outlook Express 6 is taking its place. I will check to see if I can import the old material. Do you see any problems thus far?

Did you really DELETE 2003 or did you uninstall it? If you uninstalled it, then the pst will definitely still be on your system. And if you did delete rather than uninstall, I would be surprised if you found the pst because it is normally stored in the user's profile: you're unlikely to have deleted your Windows Profile. If you use the File, Import command in OE, it may even find the old pst on its own. Terry "Jon C." wrote in message ... This reply is for Tim and Terry: Thanks guys.

You still didn't really answer Terry's question. Did you "delete" Office
2003... or did you remove/uninstall it? There is a tremendous difference. If you simply "deleted" Office 2003 (which would have been done using Windows Explorer or My Computer, or something like that), then there quite possibly is a way to get Outlook back. Depending on which folders you deleted, it is very unlikely that you deleted the Outlook .pst file. On the other hand, if you used Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel to "remove" or uninstall Office 2003, then you're out of luck as far as recovering any of your Office 2003 program. BUT, in either case, your .pst file(s) and any other data files should still be on your computer. Even if you deleted everything related to Office 2003, unless you emptied your recycle bin, the .pst file should still be there somewhere and recoverable. And, if you uninstalled, uninstalling does not touch the .pst or other settings/data files. Therefore, the terminology you use is important. Since there is nothing in Control Panel that would "delete" Office 2003, I'm assuming that you instead "removed" it. While this doesn't provide a way to recover any of your Office 2003 programs, all of your Office 2003 data should still be on your computer. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Jon C." wrote in message ...

Herb, thank you for your lesson in terminologly. I needed that because I am
so used to using lazy English. I just don't know how to recover my .pst files. I would be extremely greatful if you know of a place for me to learn this process, or be able to tell me.

Your belief is probably not correct. You should use Windows explorer to
look for files with a .pst extension. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
