Importing Outlook Messages..

[Syringer]

I just did a reinstall of XP on the same computer, didn't reformat or anything, and I want to import my old messages to this new copy.

Replaced the .pst file that Outlook created with your new install with the .pst file from your old install. Or do an 'import' from the File menu and point it to your old .pst.

Hmm, I can't find any .pst files..

It might be hidden. Show your hidden files and do a search. It should show up (maybe somewhere under Local Settings). Hope this helps.

Nope

Gaah, need my email!

It won't show up in an XP search because XP only searches registered file types. Outlook's PST files are located in the \Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook folder.
