hi DL

thanks for the reply.

so you say - if i open a new profile, then open all my existing PSTs - it
will convert them all to 2003 PST format?

Will my preferences be conserved as well?

Thanks!

The pst can be located anywhere on your HD, there is no particular 'correct
location' only the default location
Overwriting an existing pst can lead to corruption.

With OL closed, use the mail applet in the control panel to create a new
profile and data file.
Add your accounts
In OL, FileOpenbrowse to your OL2002 pst and open.
Copy data from old to new
Close old when completed

hey folks

i just moved over from 2002, using the slipstick (?) artcile - placing the
PST and other files in the correct locations.

It seems i may have a corruption (someone said i do) - because i have 2
folder called "personal folder" in my folder list - both are IDENTICAL.

either way - my outlook told me today that my PST is full, and i should
consider using the new Outlook 2003 folder system because it allows for
more
space. i;d love to do that!

Can someone point me in the right direction of how to do this properly -
- maintain multiple PST files
- conserve Contacts
- main rules, nick lists, signatures and all other valuable usaeble data

Thanks in advance!!
