Converting backup file from outlook 2007 to 2003
No conversion should ne necessary. Outlook 2003 and 2007 both use the same
Unicode .PST file format, so the data files are interchangeable. With Outlook 2007 closed, make a copy of your current .PST file. Take this copy to the Outlook 2003 machine, place it in a folder where it will NOT overwrite any existing .PST files, make sure its not set READ ONLY, then open it with Outlook 2003 using 'File|Open|Outlook Data File'.
