Reparing a pst file for Outlook 2003
I need some help in trying to recover data stored in my Outlook 2003 pst
folders. My computer suffered a hard drive failure and I had the pst folder saved. I tried to open, import, even changed the name to get it to open. After reading some of the posts here I am sure I have corrupted the file. What can I do to save the data is the old pst file?

Reparing a pst file for Outlook 2003
I would try running the inbox repair tool (scanpst.exe) against a **copy**
of the PST file you have. "EFNova" wrote in message ... I need some help in trying to recover data stored in my Outlook 2003 pst folders.

Reparing a pst file for Outlook 2003
The inbox repair tool does not recognize the file. Any other thoughts?
