Have a *.pst file on a flash drive. Trying to carry my outlook data from
office to home computers. If I move it from the home computer to the
office, and then make changes there, then open it again on the home
computer, I get an error message that the *.pst file could not be accessed
because another workstation has modified it, and that I should close and
then restart all mail-enabled applications.
Since I don't use Outlook for email, only calendar and contacts, how do I
un-mail enable outlook on both computers??? Possible? TIA for any
help/advice.

Do you close the file before each move you make with the file? The message
about mail-enabled apps is catch-all message, it doesn't mean that Outlook
is getting your mail, it's just trying to tell you to exit all apps that
might be accessing the PST file in a user-friendly fashion
