inbox repair tool

[Vike]

Hello

I'm using Outlook 2000 and cannot delete my delete my "Deleted Items"
folder. When I try to open it I get this

"Unable to display the folder. Errors have been detected in the file
C:\Documents and Settings\...\outlook.pst. Quit all mail-enabled
applications, and then use the Inbox Repair Tool"

Where do I find the Inbox Repair Tool? The Outlook help file doesn't seem
to have the answer.

TIA

Henrik

Hello

So I found it and used it .. but it doesn't finish the job becaus it wants
me to run Scandisk on the drive in question. I have done that a few times
now .. but Scanpst still doesn't finish it's job and asks for Scandisk. Am
I looking into a wall here?

Copy the file to another disk/partition and try to run scanpst.exe again
