Computer Question: How to export Outlook 2007 data to another computer?

If you are going to get a real laptop in the near future, then here's what I recommend:

Microsoft 2010 Beta. It's a free download with a time bomb that will expire in the future when the released product comes out. When that happens, they will most likely have a 60 day trial of the non-beta that you can download.

Viola, you have Office freely and legally for the next few months, if that's as much time as you need.

Does TeamViewer work on Win7? I have been looking for an alternative to Netmeeting.

[time4good]

Yes. Just used it the other day for the first time on Win7. Having worked with a free Citrix GoToMeeting for a few years and then having to look for an alternative, I was disappointed with LogMeIn in assist mode. Guy at work just the other day had me use TeamViewer and I was pleasantly surprised. On Win7

...please READ the original question, and give me a SIMPLE answer!

I can understand your frustration but this is really not the way to go about getting an answer from people on FR who have no reason or vested interest in giving you an answer in the first place.

Try a search engine and do some research before coming here and getting all snippy about it.

Awesome, thanks! Will try this week as I am now on Win7 and my customers are are all on XP.

"Belkin" produces a "Easy Transfer Cable," with CD that you can buy at Lowe's.

OK simple question you have Outlook 2007 on your old computer ... do you have Outlook 2007 on you new computer?

If you have Outlook on both then it easy to do by.pst file...

but if you trying to take data out/export of Outlook 2007 on your old computer and import it in to a different mail program on your new computer... that another ballgame....

So are you exporting data from one copy of Outlook and importing in to Outlook on another computer?

[tophat9000]

OK blessu Easy Transfer is NOT way to do this for two reason...

Easy Transfer will trafer data beween the same program on two diffrent system

So BOTH would need to have Outlook on them to have any hope of Easy Transfer working for your Outlook data

And If you do have Outlook on both the old and new system...then doing a .pst export and import of the Outlook data is safer and faster

Easy Transfer will bite you in the butt about 1 out 10 times and even if it goes smooth I had it twist up Outlook files

I'm a computer tech and network engineer since 1980...Ive done this a few times;>
