2002 to 2003?

D

DH

TIA

I have to add new emails from a computer that is running Outlook 2002, into
a computer that is running Outlook 2003. I saved a pst file but the 2003
Outlook will not recognize it.

How do I get around this?

Again, thanks,

Dave H.

My first guess would be to shut down Outlook 2002, make sure it's not
running using Task Manager, and trying the copy again.

Since the data files are perfectly compatible, you tell us. You have left
out the rest of the story.

I apologize and you are correct. I misstated the problem. I have a pst
file from a 2003 Outlook and I need to import it into a 2002 Outlook. I do
get the "The file c:\xxx\xxx\xx*.pst is not compatible with this version of
the Personal Folders information service......"

Thanks in advance,

Dave H.
