Cannot import .pst file into Outlook

I was in the process of importing a 1.52gb .pst file into Outlook whe
it suddenly stopped loading and since then it will not load and lock
up the application. I have scanned with scanpst.exe and it says tha
the file is ok. Does anybody know how I can either load it or extrac
the relevant folders, even if it meant losing some

Are you able to simply open the file in Outlook using File | Open?

1.52GB is getting uncomfortably close to the 2GB limit (assuming this .PST
was created in Outlook 2002 or earlier)...once you do get it open you need
to consider breaking it up into smaller files to avoid further problems.
