Cant open PST file!

[John Linares]

I had a PST file (300 megabytes) which opened fine but suddenly, under
Windows XP, it is having problems opening. I get the following 2 error
messages:

(1) "Properties for this information service must be defined prior to use"

(2) "The file ..... is not a personal folders file"

The file is still 300 megabytes so the data is still there - but why cannot
I open it?? What should I do?

Thanks,

John

Have you tried running the Inbox Repair Tool (SCANPST.EXE) against the file?
