What is N:\OUTLOOK FILES\archive.pst.??

You did not copy the 2003 pst archive files to the correct location. Read the
answers that was posted by Gordon and DL

Copy to your Documents folder and not the default Outlook location and most
definitely not to the one you posted

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?

Cheers

I have bought a new computer which has Outlook 2007. My previous computer uses
Outlook 2003. I would like to keep and possibly 'transfer' the old (stored)
emails from my previous computer onto my new computer so that if need be, I can
view them again.

Where should I look in the 2003 version and which file should I copy?

I think I recall being told several years ago that Outlook stores Contacts in a
file ending with .pst but I am not sure about the extension of the file which
stores the emails.

All in the same file. The default name is Outlook.pst, but search for *.pst,
including Hidden files.

I do not necessarily want to replace my current (Outlook 2007) emails and
folders with the previous version, I simply want to know that they are on my
new computer and I can view them when I want (when I learn how to)

Copy to your new HDD and do File-Open-Outlook Data File in Outlook.
