Default Unable to open Personal Folders in outlook

I am hoping someone has run into this issue or has some suggestions on how
to resolve it.

When going into Outlook 2000 I am unable to open any PST. that are located
on my personal drive on the network under the \Outlook subdirectory.

The message I receive when trying to open a pst in outlook is as follows:
Unable to expand the folder. The set of folders could not be opened. The
file U:\outlook\bill1.pst could not be accessed.

The Operating System for the machine I am using is Windows XP

The server, which the PST Folder resides is Windows 2003 Server




Thank you

Laurie

Outlook and Outlook Express are entirely different programs. You will get
better help in an MS Outlook newsgroup:

Hey Bruce, what's the advantage if any to using Outlook over OE email-wise?

Guv Bob,
The Office Outlook has more function than Outlook Express. If you will note
the number of newsgroups devoted to different aspects of the program.
If you are concerned with only e-mail. Either will do the job. But so will
Thunderbird. I have used Office Outlook since Office 97. It's now very
'comfy.' Even Office Outlook 2007.

Outlook Express is a simple Mail and News program.

Outlook is a Mail, Calendar, Scheduler, Task manager, etc. It works with an
Exchange server allowing many people in an office environment to share
messages, calendars, appointments, etc.

but it doesn't do Newsgroups for some reason.
