Can you clarify why you are clicking on Cancel the first time Outlook
prompts for your password?
Normally, one would just enter the pw at the prompt and your're in.

I have password protected a private PST file. When I open Outlook 2002 and
click on the PST file - it asks for my password. If I just click cancel
there - I see no way to open that file again unless I quit Outlook and come
back in. When I click on the PST file, I would have thought it would have
asked for the password again, but it gives a different error and no where
can you specify the password...

Any ideas?

Thanks, Brad
