I went to where the data file was created and dragged and copied to another
drive. I have made sure the read only attribute is not marked. I've done this a dozen times. After I wipe my drive and reinstall all my programs I've alway imported the contents of the copied file and have never had a problem. I can't even drag and drop it in another folder on the same drive or a different drive.

Do you have a good back up? You may have corrupted the file if you copied it
before Outlook had disconnected from it completely. Did you get any messages when you copied this file?
