Yes, it see as PST file. I use Outlook 2002. When I chouse the pst it
says:
"The file ..... is not a personal folder file. "
And where is this pst file that you are trying to open located? If it's on a
CD or DVD then you need to copy it to your HDD and remove the Read-Only
attribute.
If it is already on your HDD, then check the read-only attribute is off. If
it is, you need to tell us how this pst was created.
Someone i know told me to try newer version and try to import, but i do
not think it will resolve my problem.
Newer version of what? And importing is NEVER the way to transfer data from
one Outlook to another UNLESS you are moving from Exchange server.
Even then, open the PST (File, Open) - IMO, I would never user the
import function moving to or from Exchange Server. Just open the PST,
and drag n' drop between the Exchange Server folders and the PST folders
(using the right mouse button to be safe and 'copy' rather than 'move' -
ie get a context sensitive choice).
