File ->Export?

 

[neonerd]

accounts, idk...i'd like to know

emails, go to file > export > export to file > .pst file > and just export.....

later import it into your new outlook.pst file rather than just renaming it and making it your outlook.pst file....you're going to have problems with your contacts list if you do that....hope it helps

Outlook Xp and Outlook 2002 are one in the same.

Newer versions of Outlook (2002 and 2003) no longer support exporting mail account settings to an .iaf file, unfortunately - only importing.

However, mail account settings are encapsulated in the "Office xxxx Save My Settings Wizard" (where xxxx is the version), which is included in both the 2002 and 2003 versions of Office.

Information on whichever applications (believe most if not all of the applications are supported) are selected is stored in an .ops file.
