Default Read pst for storage in db


Any ideas on how to read a pst file copied from outlook. I have a task
to extract the data from the pst and store it in a database. I must
also be able to extract attachments. My company will use this approach
for litigation. Any ideas?

Yes. With Outlook. Otherwise, there MAY be a commercial tool available,
but I haven't seen any.

My apologies for not being more concise. I meant programtically access
the contents of a pst file using .NET?

No matter what language you plan to use you still have to use the Outlook
object model and Outlook automation to read and parse the PST file. See
www.outlookcode.com for many Outlook coding examples.

Also, programming questions are best asked in one of the Outlook programming
groups, that's where the developers hang out.
