Just switched from an XP Home to XP Professional computer & imported my .pst
file for Outlook. The text for all overdue & future tasks & events now shows up in Week or Month view, but not Day or Work Week view. Only the color labeled time blocks for those events & tasks is visible on Day & Work Week views unless I mouse over the time block. How can I restore text visibility in this situation? Thanks! |

Why did you import? You shoulda just opened the old pst in the new profile.
What version of Outlook? It sounds like a problem with the view - as in you used a different view in the old pst. Are you using the Day/Week/Month view with autopreview?

How do you open an old pst in a new profile? I can easily uninstall & start
over. "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: Why did you import? You shoulda just opened the old pst in the new profile. What version of Outlook?

No need to uninstall. Copy the pst to the machine and close outlook then add
it to the profile via Control panel, mail and set it as default. http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/connect_pst.htm - for older versions http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/2007_profile.htm - the steps to change to an old pst are near the bottom. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com/ Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: "MSBefuddled" wrote in message ...
