No Archive Folder in Folder list

R

RichC593

Just installed Vista Business and Office 2007 and rather than import
Outlook.pst and Archive.pst I removed both .pst files from the newly
installed Outlook and copied my old Outlook and Archive .pst folders into
the Outlook. Everything form Outlook.pst (contacts, email, sent items
calender items and tasks are fine however, in the Navigation pane the
Archive Folder isn't listed and I can not find a way to put one there.

By the way, I am using pop mail.

Thanks,

RichC

Are you sure you are looking at Folder List in Navigation Pain, not Mail?

Open the archive.pst using File | OPen | Outlook Data file.

Imagine if every Thursday your shoes exploded if you tied them the usual
way. This happens to us all the time with computers, and nobody thinks of
complaining.

Thanks, Judy. However, I found the my problem. There isn't an Archive Folder
icon in the Navigation Pane until Auto Archive runs the first time. By
chance, Auto Archive ran this AM and immediately the Archive folder icon was
placed in the Navigation Pane.

Thanks,

Yes. But that archive will not be the one you wanted to find. It is a new
blank one You asked about one you had not imported.I thought you wanted the
data that is in it.

Oddly, when Auto Archive ran the icon for both new and old Archive folders
was placed in the Nav Pane.
