Default the contacts got deleted in outlook 2000.

One of my coworker's deleted another coworker's contacts. ALL of them. She
has no .pst file, and I already checked into her deleted folders and found
nothing there because there is nothing in the folder itself. Is there a way
to get the contacts back? She has an old computer that because her regular
computer got broken and I can't restore anything on it. And on this old
computer that she is currently using, she has no system restore which is
kinda strange. I would have figured that, that might be my only option in
trying to get her contacts back, but I would like some more suggestions if
it's possible for me to try. Thank you and have a wonderful day.

Sincerely,

System Restore would never restore data and would be useless. Are we to
assume no one backs up their data or that you are not running against
Exchange Server?
There is a slim chance this might help:

Your post contains other incompatible statements. If there is no PST file,
then you must be running against Exchange server in which case your data is
already backed up on the server.
Reconcile your post.

When I looked into the folder where the .pst file would be contained. There
is none there. Usually the only reason a .pst file is created, is if Auto
Archive is on. And it was not on there. We do have exchange server as well,
where we can look at our work emails thru the internet from home. I have not
checked that way to see, if her contacts are in Microsoft exchange, but will
try it now to see what happens.

Whatever is on outlook, also show's the same way for Outlook Web Access as
well. So it's not in there.

Exchange Server "as well?" As well as what? I doubt you have any problem
here at all. If you do, post back with more accurate information. Better
yet, contact your Exchange administrator.

But they are backed up if you are running against Exchange Server. You need
to be asking your Exchange Administrator not us.
