Where does outlook save your data (ie contact list, notes, etc). I would like to transfer all this to another computer. The computer that the data is on however will not launch outlook so I cannot do the export data option. I need help, anyone have any ideas?

If you're running Windows XP or Windows 2k with Outlook 2k or 2k2:

c:\documents and settings\<your username>\application data\microsoft\outlook\*.pst

You'll probably have two files...

outlook.pst or personal.pst would be your main db, archives.pst is anything you've archived.

Hope that helped!
