Open a pst in a dvd

[Chufo]

Hi,
I backup my old pst file in a dvd and when I try to open it using the
outlook menu "File/Open pst file" I get this error:
Unable to access the file mail.pst. You don't have sufficient privilegies".

I remember other times to do the same and open pst files saved in a cd-rw.

Is there any different in a dvd?
What can I do to save a 1,5Gb pst file in a dvd and then open it from
outlook?

Thanks for any help.

Only if the drive/media allows read/write access, which a DVD does not. You
need to use your hard drive for storage and remove the read=only attribute
from the .pst file to be able to use.
