Computer Numpty needs help!

[Mallard]

My current Desktop is on its last legs. I am running Windows XP, MS-Office, & Outlook. I have sourced a new Desktop which will be running Vista. I have my own copy of MS-Office (small business) to load onto the new machine, and I can transfer my ‘My Documents’ folder over. My query is; How can I transfer over all the e-mails/contacts/calendar that I have in MS-Outlook without loosing any? Is there an easy way to transfer everything over from my old computer to my new one?

Your comments would be greatly appreciated.

If Outlook is like Outlook Express then "File"/"Export" should let you copy email accounts and emails to a removable drive. "File"/"Import" on the new computer will then let you recover the accounts and correspondence.
