What is the best way to get the data from my PST - presently in the

Verify that your current .pst file in Outlook 2003 is using the
Unicode format. If it is not, create a new .pst file using the new
format. Then, open the older .pst file in Outlook 2003 (make sure not
to overwrite a .pst file with the same name!) and copy everything that
you want to transfer from the older .pst file folders into the newer
format .pst file's folders.

SgtRich,

Current PST is definitely not Unicode. So I will create a new PST
within 2003 and that should then be Unicode.

As for the "...copy everything..." direction, You mean via the regular
copy/paste commands? How much can be copied at a time? Eg, within
the email folders can I grab the contents entire folders and Ctrl+C /
Ctrl+V? And how do I copy/paste calendar events? Copy the whole
folder named Calendar?

Thanks.
