New computer states importing .pst is noncompatable
We've tried exporting/importing our .pst file from several family laptops to
the new desktop. And tried using tools/options/data files/new and the reverse on the new computer but we keep getting a pop up box stating "no can do" the incoming .pst is 'non-compatable' with the new desktop. We're running all the same versions of Outlook and XP. Why isn't this working or How can I get around it or upload the contacts by another means?? It's the Outlook Contacts that we wish to import.

New computer states importing .pst is noncompatable
Importing and exporting are never the correct way to transfer Outlook data.
Just open the file. If you still get that message, then in fact you are not running the same versions of Outlook. Restate your problem and the steps you used to create it more accurately. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "ACL" wrote in message ...
