Using Outlook 2K PST File in Outlook 2003

[Dennis]

Hello,

I'm getting a new computer with Outlook 2003 installed.
Will I be able to use my old Outlook 2000 email (PST)
files in Outlook 2003? If so, I how do I import them into
Outlook 2003?

You can simply tell Outlook to use the old file, which will still have the
2GB limit - or you can create a new PST file in OL2003 and import from the
old one.

Dennis:

Outlook 2003 can open your existing PST file with no problem. Just create a
profile that points to your existing PST file and you're done.

Richard, thanks. I assume the Outlook 2K PST file must be
imported into Outlook 2003 or at least reside on a disk
drive somewhere. I have exported my Outlook 2K file to a
portable hard drive in preparation for importing it onto
my new computer. Thanks.
