Accessing multiple .pst files
I have a backup .pst file on an external hard drive from an Office 2003
computer. My home computer is running Office 2007. Can I access and operate on emails on the external hard drive (2003) using my Outlook 2007 home computer without corrupting my normal home .pst file? |

Accessing multiple .pst files
You can open the .pst file as an additional data file in both versions of
Outlook, but you can only use one Outlook version at a time with both .pst files open. Optionally, you can create a second mail profile and connect the other unused .pst to that profile to keep the data separate. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact. ALWAYS post your Outlook version.

Accessing multiple .pst files
Opening a data file within Outlook gives you a second set of Personal
Folders, the two are completely seperate. How you deal with a second email account, if thats what you mean depends. "4dogs" wrote in message ...
