Outlook 2003 PST problems

S

Sylvia

I just installed Office 2003 professional on a new computer
& am having problems with outlook. I copied my Outlook.pst
file into the appropriate directory & although it is
recognized the calendar is not working properly. I cannot
attach any of the colored labels to my appointments - so
everything is pretty much in black & white. I totally
uninstalled & reinstalled office... first removing my pst
file... but there appears to be an ini file... or something
that is retaining some information... does anyone know of a
fix for the labels... or how to TOTALLY uninstall office
(so I can start anew??)

Thanks for any help!!!

If you overwrote one .PST file with another, you may have corrupted
something. .PST files don't have to be in any specific location on your
hard drive, so overwriting is never necessary or recommended.

Try running the Inbox Repair Tool against your .PST file to see if it finds
any errors. Search your drive for a file called scanpst.exe and run it.
