Opening a .pst file that has been burned to CD

[Guest]

I cannot open a .pst that has been burned to a CD. In Outlook, I try to add
a new Personal Folder but it won't work. I get "File access denied. You do
not have permission to access the file".

Never mind - I figured it out ("read only" check box that Roxio does).

Did you move this file to a hard drive and remove its read only attribute?

It's not Roxio doing that, it's Windows' CD file system. Files on a CD are
ALWAYS read only and must be copied to the hard drive before the read-only
attribute can be removed.
