New Followup -- and if the old system were, say, largely hosed?

I think I've solved the current problem. Documented a bit at TWIT on [link|http://twiki.iwethey.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/MicrosoftOutlook|MicrosoftOutlook] as well.

\r\n\r\n

Question that occurs though -- and this has some real-world basis from the past month or so. What would you do to recover data from a system whose HD had crashed, at least sufficiently that the OS no longer booted and/or it wasn't possible to export the MS Outlook data? I still don't see a way for a standalone client to be replicated or transferred readily. What am I missing here?

What part of "gestalt" don't you understand?\r\n

New .pst files contain all the data...
...and can be "Opened" from within Outlook.

File->Open->Personal Folder File (.pst)

That's there for me under Office 2000 right now... And that's what I've used several times.
