I could not find an "outlook.pst" file to import but I found an
"archive.pst" file. I have not been able to import it. When I get to the
last stage of the import wizard, it tells me that import folder cannot be
same as source folder.
Thanks, cmar
 
The last stage of the import wizard has a dialog with "Select folder to
import from" but one is only given a choice of folders with names like
"Calendar, Notes, etc" even though the .pst file to be imported is in an
entirely different folder.
Nevertheless one can browse to the .pst file.
Next is a radio button choice: "Import items into current folder" or
"Import items into same folder in Personal or Archive" folder. None of
these choices makes sense or allows the import to complete.
Thanks, CMA
 
Why are you importing when you can work with the data in a .pst file simply by using the File | Open | Outlook Data File command?
