Default Can't delete Outlook rules

Hi

I have used a PST file from Outlook 2003 in the older Outlook 2002.
Everything seems to work except the rules that i had in the 2003 version
can't be deleted. I can disable them, but it would be nice to get rid of
them completely.
Any ideas how i do this?

I'm presuming this was a non-Unicode PST file, then - as OL2002 & prior
can't read 'new format' PST files.

What errors do you get when you try to remove them?

Thanks for answering.

I'm not sure what you mean by non-Unicode file, and where to look for this.
Everything else in this PST file is working 100%, calendar, contacts, mails,
notes, tasks (filesize is app 700 MB).

What errors do you get when you try to remove them?


None. The Delete (and all other, except New) button is simply just grayed
out so i can't select it.
