my dates marked on my calendar form outlook office 2007. I just recently
started using the program for my new business. Can anyone please help me
retrieve the information. I didn't have a back up system and not sure why it
erased everything on my office outlook. Much appreciated, B

Why did you post in the "Windows Update" newsgroup, specifically?
How do you connect to your email server?
Have you verified your PST file is gone?

Hi Shenan,
I too lost everything in Outlook 2007 it would not access the server, and
told me to contact my administrator if the problem persisted.
For me I go through earthlink and cannot seem to find my .pst file any longer.

Any help is appreciated

Jim

Apparently from "http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968774/"

"First startup experience Immediately after you install the SP2 update, the
first startup of Outlook will not be fast because Outlook must update
internal PST data structures that are used in SP2 performance optimizations.
This is a one-time occurrence that affects only the initial startup. The
upgrade process may take from several minutes to two hours. The time depends
on how large your PST and OST files are and on how many PST files are mounted
in the profile during the first startup. As soon as the data structures are
updated, Outlook will benefit from the improvements. "

If time doesn't fix the issue, then -
