Importing *.pst

G

Guest

I am trying to import my archived 2003 pst file into Outlook 2007. But I
keep getting the message that the data has changed, or moved [when it has
not].
Should I, then, uninstall OL 2007, import to OL 2003, then reinstall OL 2007
as the upgrade?

Thanks for the help!

No
In OL, File>Open>Data File........browse to your data file.
I assume the archive is located on the HD, the read only flag is off & you
did'nt overwrite any existing pst if you moved it

Great Help!!!
Thanks!
Now, perhaps you can help me further:
The only Contacts that appear in my Main Folder, are those that are synched
to my Outlook Live account on the Internet.
Those Contacts -- those that are on the Internet -- are ones that I don't
really use any longer.
How can I Import, Migrate, or otherwise move the Contacts that you just
helped me to find, to that Account/Folder located on the Internet?
Or the reverse -vis., delete the Contacts on the Internet-based Folder, and
use the Contacts Folder that you helped me find, as my Main Folder?
I do not intend to confuse you: the Contacts that are located on the
Internet, I no longer use. Microsoft limited the number of Contacts that I
could store there, and that, quite simply, drove me away from that part of
the Live service.
Let's say that I have over 2,000 Contacts. Can the Internet Folder support
that number? Or, am I beter off storing them on my HD?
One option is as good as the other. Presumably, my Treo 700W could synch
them, whether on my HD, or on the Net. I just need to know if there IS a
storage limit on the Web-Based accound, and; if there is, how do I amass
everyting on my HD?
Does that make sense.
Thank you again for your help. I appreciate it quite a bit.
Really!
