Default Problems migrating data from Outlook 2003 to 2007

Hi,

I have exported all my data from Outlook 2003 in a .pst file. When I try and
import it into Outlook 2007 it says "File access is denied. You do not have
the permission required to access the file .....pst"

What is the best way to transfer all the data from 2003 to 2007 or does
anybody tell me why this is happening?

Thanks

Please search these group for the countless posts that will already tell you
what you have done wrong. It will quickly become very clear to you that you
never transfer Outlook data using export and import. Ever. Correct methods
are posted here daily.

On top of what Russ said, this message specifically indicates that your PST
is read-only. Either it is on a CD or you have copied it to hard drive but
have not removed the read-only attribute.
