Don't import; for that matter, don't export or import because these
functions are broken, they lose data, and they usually corrupt the Outlook
profile in use. On the original system, make a copy of the .PST file (with
Outlook closed). Take this copy to your Vista machine and put it where it
will NOT OVERWRITE any existing .PST files. Since you attempted to import
with the current Outlook profile on the Vista machine, create a NEW Outlook
profile (the current profile is probably corrupted as a result of the import
attempt), launch Outlook with the new profile, and re-connect the copied
..PST file to it.
