Default Before upgrading to Outlook 2003, how to handle archive files?

You'll need to do nothing. Outlook 2003 will hand;e Outlook 2002 archives
transparently. However, were I you, if I did not have the archives in the
Folder List (i.e., explicitly visible under FileData File Management), then
with Outlook closed I'd simply rename the old archive PSTs and let Outlook
create new ones when next autoarchive runs.

By the way, this brings up another point. Do NOT export or import your
existing PSTs, either before or after the upgrade.
