HDD failure left me with assembling a backup after complete reinstall of XP
Pro and Office XP.
Fortunately I recovered almost 90% of my old *.pst and used that when
setting up my new user. Outlook was fine jsut missing some more recent
entries.
My work machine has the same mail accounts and messages but not in synch
completely with home. It too has XP Pro and Office XP.
I have copied the *.pst to a CD (with Outlook closed) and taken it home to
import the missing stuff but it tells me "this is not a vailid *.pst" and dis
allows the import. The properties do not show read only (as I had seen as a
problem in previous posts). I have tried numerous variations like Exporting
to a file (from my work machine) and Importing it at home. Still no luck.
Any ideas?? I've never had these problems before
