OK....here is my problem. I reinstalled windows & office 2003, of
course when i started the config it created a new pst file. so i
imported my .pst file and now i have the regular inbox in the inbox a
folder in the inbox, etc. it seems to have merged my pst with the
pst....does that make sense??

confused? so am i!! PLEASE HELP ME!!

You've just found out why importing a pst is NOT recommended. (This is
posted in the Outlook groups at LEAST once a day....)
Create a new Outlook Profile and OPEN the old pst file.

I have always done this way with no problems. I think I messed up
where you have the option of importing into the same folder, etc. I
guess I have to start all over again. Any other ideas?



No, but do NOT use the import function! It's not designed to migrate data
from one Outlook to another...Just OPEN the pst file by going to
File-Open-Outlook Data File....
