Outlook 2003 introduced a new PST file format. You can create a legacy
PST
file by using File New Outlook data file and picking the Outlook
97/2002
flavor. Items put in the legacy PST should make it easier to move things
between the two installs.

My desktop computer is running Outlook 2000. My previous laptop also had
Outlook 2K.
I used to be able to drag messages, contacts etc to a shared network drive
and then into the other copy of Outlook.

My new laptop has Outlook 2003. I am able to drag Outlook 2K items to the
laptop but cant go in the other direction (OL 2003 to OL 2000). I tried
saving the items into a new PST file but OL2K wont read the 2003 PST
either.
I know that I can export contacts, but then I loose the groups.

Any suggestions for a quick way to move (copy) data between OL2K3 and
OL2K
and then back in the other direction?

Thanks
