Thank you again Mr. Labman. The only files on my Outlook are Contacts. There is nothing in Inbox. What I'm trying to do is move my Contacts from the backup on the external drive to the new laptop. As I mentioned in my first question, when I tried to do this function I got a Caution.
Thank you, I appreciate your help.

Again, what you need to do identify where the Contact file is saved, and copy it, rather than open it. You will get a caution about losing the file, but if it is empty, go ahead.
