Move .pst from OL2000 to OL2003

[mollerism]

My laptop crashed. Bought a new one and old harddrive was
copied to a folder on new machine. Old machine had
office 2000 and new machine has office 2003. When I
import my .pst folder all that comes in are contacts and
recycle bin. help

Assuming the pst is not flaged as read only, have you tried, within OL,
opening it.

You don't have to "import" anything. Just copy the entire PST to your new
machine (create a folder named OLDATA and put it there), then use the
File|Open|Outlook Data File command to attach it to your mail profile.
