This is impossible. An .ost file only works with Microsoft Exchange Server
(without that, you cannot work Offline...)

The only possibility is putting the PST file on your own computer (I assume
its a portable) and synchronize it with the network. You cannot do this
(easily) with the Offline files from Windows itself, but you can do it f.e.
with SecondCopy...

I am unable to open Outlook when I am not connected to the network
to view my .pst files. Can this be done or do I need to or do I
need to set up an .ost Offline Folder file and view my entire
mailbox? My pst file is located in my MyDocuments folder. I am running
Outlook 2003. The error message I am receiving is "Cannot start MS Office
Outlook. Unable to open the Outlook window. The set of folders could not
be
opened."
I have installed Outlook 2003 on a re-imaged computer with the same
results.
