Default unable to open password protected PST file...

I have password protected a private PST file. When I open Outlook 2002 and
click on the PST file - it asks for my password. If I just click cancel
there - I see no way to open that file again unless I quit Outlook and come
back in. When I click on the PST file, I would have thought it would have
asked for the password again, but it gives a different error and no where
can you specify the password...

Any ideas?

Thanks, Brad

Can you clarify why you are clicking on Cancel the first time Outlook
prompts for your password?
Normally, one would just enter the pw at the prompt and your're in.
