Outlook 2003 Archive Issue

[JS]

Hello All:

Have an issue since upgading from Outlook 2002 to 2003. I have a bunch of
..pst files created with older versions of Outlook and have a problem since
the upgrade. If I select FILE>ARCHIVE etc and point to any of these older
..pst's, I get the following error:

You are attempting to archive to an Outlook 97-2002 Personal Folder File
(.pst) which is a NON-UNICODE data file. To preserver multilingual data, you
must choose a Unicode data file such as the Microsoft Office Outlook
Personal Folder file (.pst)

However, if I simply drag and drop into these older .pst's, everything is
fine. Any help apprecaited.

Thanks

I dont know, but I would hazzard that OL2003 archive process, from a unicode
pst requires a unicode pst to archive to.
I'm sure you are aware that in a pre unicode format pst there is a size
restraint, so if you might want to use a unicode archive pst
