back up outlook file
I used the export feature in Outlook on another computer that had to be sent
in for service. File, Import Export, to another file, pst. I selected the whole personal folder and exported it. It saved as a backup.pst. I then copied this into a CD. Now I am trying to birng it back in but it is not recognizing the backup file as a personal folders file???????? It only sees one .pst file which is the one that got created when I set up the email account in this PC. ????help? |

back up outlook file
Why would you export? That's a good way to lose data, not preserve it. Just
copy the PST file and open it in another installation. Once you put a PST file on a CD, you must place it back on a hard drive and remove the read only attributer before Outlook can access it. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "CCC" wrote in message ...
