Outlook doesn't recognise imported Contact's language
 

A friend has a laptop, W7 Home Premium with Office 2007. Both English versions.

She is trying to import her Outlook Contacts from an XP Pro SP3/Office 2003
Pro Greek system.

The new system won't recognise the Greek characters when importing the PST ,
although it is possible to manually add Contacts in Greek.

Installing the Office 2007 Greek Language pack doesn't help.

So there is a ridiculous situation whereby she has a Office with all menus
etc in Greek, she can manually add Contacts in Greek, but she can't import
the 600 odd
contacts from her old system.

Advice please.

What happens if she simply opens the PST instead of importing it?
FileOpenOutlook Data File?
