Opening .pst from CD?

G

Guest

If I've archived a folder of emails to CD as a .pst file, how can I open them
again in Outlook?

I tried saving the file to my hard drive, then using 'Open' - 'Outlook Data
File' but Outlook tells me

"The file C:\...etc. test.pst is not a personal folders file"

I have already un-checked the Read Only box in Properties, so its not that.
Strangely, the same file can be opened from the computer that I originally
exported the .pst to. But after it has been resaved to my hard drive from the
CD, it can't be accessed.

Please help?

Unless you corrupted the file, all you need to do is move it to a hard drive
and remove its read only attribute then open it in Outlook.
How did you create and transport this file?
