Default Help, Please... importing 2000 (IMO mode) data into 2003, on Win XP.

Avoid importing whenever possible. Have you tried opening the old PST with

Thanks for the reply, Brian.

Even though the file extensions are the same, there's apparently an
entirely different file structure between O2000 and O2003.

When I open the old PST file, it opens, and I can read individual
emails, but I want to move them to the new file structure. When I
highlight all emails in an old folder, and drag them to a folder in the
new file structure, it fails after 2 minutes. It says "some items
could not be moved because..."

So,... I Removed Office 2003, re-installed Office 2000, and O2000 opens
up the Scanpst fixed file, but I still cannot copy/move an entire
folder of emails.

So,... now I'm trying Eudora.

THIS IS FRUSTRATING.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
