Unable to open default e-mail folders - Outlook shuts down
Outlook 2003 .pst format is not compatible with prior versions. Create a
97-2002 version .pst file in Outlook 2003 and then move that to your other computer and open it in Outlook. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.
