Outllook2007 to open my Outlook2002 Win7 says files locked.

[flaptaxjn]

I'm following 2002 to 2007 instructions step by step. When I point Outlook
to my
..pst file, I get access restriction messages.

How do I make sure these files can be accessed by Outlook 2007?

Thanks.

Which exact steps are these?
From your Outlook 2002 machine, copy the pst-file to your Outlook 2007
machine and place it in a convenient location such as My Documents\Outlook\
In Outlook 2007 you can then reconnect to the pst-file via;
File-> Open-> Outlook Data File...
