Where are the received emails and the contacts

I had to reinstall the OS on a W2k server, which means that after that was
done I had to reinstall all the applications running on that server. I did
not format the disk during install, so all the files that I used before are
still there. I then installed Office Pro, which contains Outlook. Now I
logon as Administrator and of course this new administrator has a different
User Id than the old one so a new profile got created under Documents and
settings and the new Outlook's folders are all empty. I now need to
recuperate all the contacts from my old outlook as well as all the e-mails
that I received previously. How do I do that?

Thanks for your help.
Bob
