OL 2002 - unable to expand the folder

W

Wes Newman

OL 2002 was working just fine until today. When I try to
open my PST folder which is on a file server I
get "Unable to expand the folder. The set of folders
could not be opened." The rest of the message lists the
file path.

I rebooted, went into control panel unattached and
reattached but no luck. The file server has lots of free
disk space and the PST is at 496MB in size.

Anyone have any ideas?

The .PST file may have gotten corrupted. Try running the Inbox Repair Tool
against it to see if it finds any errors. Search your drive for a file
called scanpst.exe and run it. Note that Microsoft doesn't support storing
..PST files on a network drive, due to the increased risk of corruption.
