How can I import *.pst files from Outlook 2003 into my Outlook 20.

[Guest]

Hi, I am trying to import Office Data file (.pst) created in Outlook 2003
into my Outlook 2002 / XP Office. It is not allowed and prompts that "the
*.pst file I am trying to import is not compatible with this version of the
personal Folders Information service". What can be the problem?

You can't do it. The only way to transfer data from Outlook 2003 to earlier
versions is to create a new Outlook data file in "Outlook 97-2002" format
while you're still using Outlook 2003, then copy your data into that file.
You cannot export from Outlook 2003 to a format that is compatible with
earlier versions and you cannot import an Outlook 2003 file into earlier
versions.
