Search Tool for my PST File

[Monzer George Yazigi]

Dear All
Any body aware of a search tool within my PST files?

I have alot of PST archive files in which I frequently use for certain
information. The problem is that these PST files are not indexed which means
I can not search them using Outlook 2007 running on Vista.


Any Advice?

Regards

Why not just index them? Open them in Outlook (File->Open->Outlook Data File) as you can have many .pst files open in one Outlook session. Then your search options are increased and your frustration index is decreased - hopefully.

Hi
Well the problem is that I have archives since 2001 with huge size. These
files are not on my laptop, rather its on my storage device located at my
office. Therefore opening these files in Outlook is not a good approach due
to avaliability.

Thats why I need an external tool.
