I've just bought a new laptop with microsoft 2007. I've created a new account but need to transfer all my contacts and messages from Outlook across to my new laptop and onto Outlook 2007.
You will need - a cd writer in the old machine or a flash pen or to have both machines on a network
Then (1) On the old machine open Outlook and select File > Import/ Export > Export to a file > Personal Folder File (pst) > then go right to the top of the file tree and select 'personal folders' and ensure that 'include sub folders' is ticked and then browse to a location you will remember and change the file name to something you can remember. Then copy the file to the cd or flash pen
Then (2) On the new machine open Outlook and select File > Import/ Export > Import from another program or file> select Personal folder file> browse to where the file is (cd or flash pen or network location) and then sit back in amazement
good luck
