Hi

I'm unable to import Outlook 2000 archived pst file into Office 2007 after
upgrading my laptop to Vista from XP and Microsoft Office to 2007 from 2000.

The attempt to open the pst file fails with the message: "File access
denied. You do not have the permission required to access the file."

As far as I know, no passwords apply to the file, and when I click on
Properties/Security it shows to allow full access.

Does anyone know how I can import my old Outlook folder?

Any helpful advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Sam

how did you move it to the vista machine? is it marked read only? have you
ran scanpst on it?
