I worked for a company that uses the Professional XP
Microsoft Outlook 2002. I recently bought the Windows xp
Home Edition with Outlook 2003. I had my e-mails from
work copied onto a CDROM and I am now trying to copy them
into my Outlook at home. It will not work. I keep
getting a message that the work .pst are not Personal
Folder .pst.

I looked into it online in Microsoft Knowledge Base
Article and it says that 2002 is in ANSI format and 2003
is in UNICODE format.

Is there a way for me to be able to move the files as I
have described above? Thanks.
 
It shouldn't be a problem when you copy the file from the CD to your
harddrive and remove the Read Only file attribute. Outlook needs to have
read/write access to the file.
