Thanks Russ, but now I have come full circle. If you check my original
post,
when I follow the path to the archive.pst I can't access the contents;
Microsoft says it can't open the file. So, effectively, anything auto
archived is no longer available to me. It seems I will have to keep
everything, in case I need it in the future. Geez this drives me crazy.

Outlook "hid" them where you told it to.

Thank you Brian. Your instructions open my archive folders but the
"auto
archived" emails are not in those folders. I can't find where Outlook
auto
archive has hidden them.
:
Outlook 2003 performs an auto archive. When I follow the path to
archive.pst I can't access contents of the archive. Microsoft says
it doesn't know the program that created the file, and no matter
what
program I try I can't open the file.
In Outlook, click File>Open>Outlook Data File, browse to the archive
PST,
select it, and click OK.
