How do I keep my Outlook 2003 contacts and emails when upgrading to 2007

I am upgrading from Office 2003-2007. How I keep all my outlook contacts and emails as I replace Office 2003.

Outlook 2003 and 2007 use what’s known as Personal Storage (.pst) files. Outlook 2007 can use 2003 pst files, but it doesn’t work the other way.

Generally, the upgrade goes fine and all your emails, addresses and tasks transfer across to 2007 without problem.

However it’s always good to err on the side of caution and back up your 2003 pst file just in case things go wrong.

On our PC Rescue website we have the instructions on backing up the files and a link to the microsoft tool that does this automatically.
