compatibility outlook 2002/2003

[alfons civit]

I saved some PST files from Ourlook 2003 (beta which
expired last sunday) and now I cannot import them in
Outlook 2002. Is this a problem with the version or maybe
my file is corrupted ? If the problem is between
versions, does somebody know the way to "translate" the
file ?
Thanks!

You will need to export from Outlook 2003, rolling back the system date first. See http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2003.htm#betaexp

This is because Outlook 2003 uses a new pst-format which is in unicode and
can hold by default (but is not limited) up to 20GB.
