Archive with unicode question

D

David Sherman

I have recently installed Outlook 2003. It was an ungrade from Outlook
XP so the original *.pst files were not unicode enabled.

When I do archiving, I get an error message:

You are attempting to arcgive your data to a Microsoft outlook 97-2002
Personal Folder file (*.pst) that does not support unicode. To choose
a Microsoft Personals file that support multilingaul Unicode data
click ok.

I want to use the archive past file that I have been using for years.

What is the best way to do this?

thanks

Why are you tied to the old format? Why not create a new format archive and
just copy the contents of your old one to the new one?

I don't understand your answer. I want to create an archive pst file
in my d:\files folder.

You said that you already have an archive file and want to continue using
it. The archive file, apparently, is the old ANSI format. I asked why you
don't want to allow Outlook 2003 to create a new, Unicode-format PST.
I want to create an archive pst file in my d:\files folder.

File>Archive. Browse to D:\Files
