Yes,
It seems to be sorted now. I had save the files onto an external hard drive
and was attempting to open them from there. After I moved them to my C
Drive, Outlook lets me open them.

Sorry I dragged it out. I'm still learning and very grateful to you for your
help.

Cheers

I copied them to a folder and tried to open the most recent (prior to the
new PC) but got the error message "File access is denied. You do not have
the permission required to access the file N:\OUTLOOK FILES\archive.pst"

It made no difference which file I tried to open, I got the same related
message. The files are mine, on a PC only used by me and belonging to me.
What permission do I need?


You ARE trying to open the file within Outlook?
