Hi,
I have two computers. One has Outlook 2003 and the other Outlook XP (2002)
I need to copy my Contacts PST from 2003 to the other machine.
I export from 2003 as a PST, then if I go to OPEN > OUTLOOK DATAFILE, and
choose the 2003 PST, it says that the version is not compatible.

How can I do this now ?????

Thanks,
Alex
 
At the launch this question came up and it is not compatable. Check to see
iof you can make the pst in an older version (have not played with it enough
myself yet). Newer to Older doesn't usually work. Ever try ACCESS??? THAT's
a nightmare.....
 
you need to create a new pst, using the old format and copy or move items to
it. If you need to share pst's often, use the new pst you create in the
ol97/2002 format as your default folders.
