New Installation

[Guest]

I am installing a NEW trial version of Outlook 2003 on a NEW computer. I have
a ".pst" from my old computer that I have moved to the new PC. The old pst is
from Outlook 2002. What all do I have to do to get the new program to
recognize and use the pst file?

Hi Ron,
Dont worry about it. Import the outlook 2002 pst into outlook
2003,it should work fine.

Importing will not bring in any rules, custom views, or custom forms. The better solution is to copy the entire .pst file and make it the default store for the new Outlook profile on the new machine. See http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA010771141033.aspx
