I backed up Outlook .pst files to my hard drive on old computer. Can I just
copy these .pst files to my new computer and then will Outlook have all the
same information on my new system?

Hi Bob,

Yes, but it helps to know what version of MS-Outlook is in use.

Hi Bob,

Sorry for the delay. You will have to go to Help - About in Outlook to
find out weather (IMO) or (CW) is installed. Then use the appropriate
article.
