BZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!! Wrong.

If the Outlook 2003 file is created in unicode format, it is NOT backwards
compatible. The OP would need to create a new .pst file in the 97-2003
style (Ansi) to be compatible with previous versions. Dragging and dropping
folders between the new and the old should populate it nicely.

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Wrong answer on wrong subject. If the OP
just copies and drops the .pst files from 2k into 2003 he should be good
to go.
Can't remember how long I've been doing exactly that (since 97 or 2k?)
