Well, I'm a fairly new Outlook 2002 user. I needed it's organizer, calendar, and contacts capabilities. I'm not gonna email with it, since Eudora's way better for that.

Anyway, I wanted to know what I would do to backup what I've specified I used. I need to be able to restore this information, in case I have to format and clean install everything again. I've seen this <A HREF="http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2002/pfbackup.aspx" target="_new">add-in here</A>. Would this solve my question? What would you suggest?

Thanks!

how many users are you doing this for? normally, i believe it is backed up with the private information store in exchange but i guess you arent using exchange?

Just me, no one else (unless my mom figures out how to use the computer). I've figured it out how to back up, and how to restore it if I do a clean install. I just had to copy the backup file to where the new original file would be stored. Not too difficult. Thanks for your input, tdean. :smile:
