783121 2009-06-18 04:29:00 Hi Guys
This issue is on one of our office computers. Running XP Home. One of my colleagues opened outlook 2003 only to find all her addresses have disappeared.
It seems the computer crashed before this happened and was restarted.
Anyone got any ideas???
Thanks
Rob

783122 2009-06-18 05:36:00 Don't suppose you have a backup of the pst file? you could try gary67 (56)
783123 2009-06-18 07:42:00 Good Idea Gary, I will check that tomorrow. theother1 (3573)
783124 2009-06-18 07:57:00 Seeing your post reminded me to do mine gary67 (56)
783125 2009-06-18 08:35:00 Once you get it sorted you should do daily backups of the Email / pst file - I have installed on all the computers that use Outlook MS's Free Backup Plugin (www.microsoft.com) - once installed you go to file / Backup, you can set it to back up at a time that suits, and to any location, either on the PC, or another PC / Server / Backup device. wainuitech (129)
783126 2009-06-20 05:38:00 Thanks Wainui
Have done mine but it seems my colleagues data has gone. Oh well! I will download the file for her and set it to backup each day so she doesn't have this problem again.
Thanks again
