Folks,
I used to Import feature of outlook to merge several .PST files I had, and
as I found out later, it created a DUPLICATE identical Personal Folders which
I could not get rid of - I ended up having to delete the Profile, reentering
all my accounts information and it is all good now.

I however, need to MERGE multiple .PST files and I DO NOT want to use that
import feature again. I tried it again in a VPC and the results are
reproducible. It creates that duplicate folder ...

Any techniques out there for MERGING 4-5 .pst files into one, after which I
will take it apart to make sure it won't get too big.

Any advice?

Cheers,
Baram

File, Open to pen the pst in the profile. Drag or copy the items to the
default pst and then File, Close the old pst.
