Please provide the instructions for opening a second .pst file in Outlook
2000 when using the Internet Only E-mail Service Option. Thanks.

You can have as many .pst files open in either mode.

| Okay, take a deep breath and step back a little. First, you need to
| make sure that you are the E-mail Service Option that you are trying
| to get the "second .pst" file into is running with the E-mail Service
| Option as "Corporate or Workgroup" NOT "Internet Only" (use > Help >
| About Microsoft Outlook to determine the E-mail Service Option that
| you are running). If you are running the "Internet Only" option, you
| can only see one .pst file at a time and will be unable to open the
| second .pst file to move/copy the calendar over. Use the Tools >
| Options > Mail Services tab > Reconfigure Mail Support button to
| change from "Internet Only" to "Corporate or Workgroup" option (NOTE:
| you MUST have the Office CD to complete this reconfiguration).
| After you are in the "Corporate of Workgroup" option mode, you need
| to "Add" a "Personal Folders" in the Tools > Services > Services tab.
| Just locate your "second .pst" in "my documents" - where you copied
| the "original .pst file to - when it wants to Open/Create the new
| Personal File that you are trying to create. You can then follow the
| instructions about copying the contents of one contact folder in the
| "second .pst file" to the original .pst file.
| Hope these instructions help. If not, let me know where you're having
| problems and I'll trying to get you pointed in the correct direction.
| If I can do it (and I did), you really can do it too.

| Okay, take a deep breath and step back a little. First, you need to
| make sure that you are the E-mail Service Option that you are trying
| to get the "second .pst" file into is running with the E-mail Service
| Option as "Corporate or Workgroup" NOT "Internet Only" (use > Help >
| About Microsoft Outlook to determine the E-mail Service Option that
| you are running). If you are running the "Internet Only" option, you
| can only see one .pst file at a time and will be unable to open the
| second .pst file to move/copy the calendar over. Use the Tools >
| Options > Mail Services tab > Reconfigure Mail Support button to
| change from "Internet Only" to "Corporate or Workgroup" option (NOTE:
| you MUST have the Office CD to complete this reconfiguration).
| After you are in the "Corporate of Workgroup" option mode, you need
| to "Add" a "Personal Folders" in the Tools > Services > Services tab.
| Just locate your "second .pst" in "my documents" - where you copied
| the "original .pst file to - when it wants to Open/Create the new
| Personal File that you are trying to create. You can then follow the
| instructions about copying the contents of one contact folder in the
| "second .pst file" to the original .pst file.
| Hope these instructions help. If not, let me know where you're having
