I would try running the inbox repair tool (scanpst.exe) against a **copy**
of the PST file you have.

I need some help in trying to recover data stored in my Outlook 2003 pst
folders. My computer suffered a hard drive failure and I had the pst
folder
saved. I tried to open, import, even changed the name to get it to open.
After reading some of the posts here I am sure I have corrupted the file.

What can I do to save the data is the old pst file?
