Thanks for the quick reply.

Import: I try to import messages/contacts/appointments/tasks folders from my
PST into a new PST file -> result: only messages/contacts/etc. untill
November 2003 (the date when I reformatted my computer) are imported.

Export: I try to export messages/contacts/appointments/tasks from my PST
into a backup PST file -> result: only messages/contacts etc. untill
November 2003 are exported into the file.

It's like every event after Nov 2003 is stored inside the PST but isn't
"registered" - so when you look for it...you can't find it.

Thanks again for any assistance you can offer.
