I am running Vista Home Premium with Outlook 2003. I archived and then
backed up a number of e-mail folders to an external hard drive. I went to
import one of the folders from the external hard drive and they are not
there, even though when I look at the external hard drive they are indeed
there. I have been selecting file from Outlook, then Import/Export, then
import from another program or file, then Personal Folder File (.Pst) and
there is but one of the folders that I backed up appearing as available to
importing back to Outlook.

How can I fix this in order to gain access to the many other folders that I
backed up to the external drive?
Thanks for your help, Michael Patterson

As posted on all the Outlook groups on a daily basis - DO NOT USE THE
IMPORT/EXPORT FUNCTION TO TRANSFER DATA FROM ONE OUTLOOK TO ANOTHER!
Copy the pst file from your external HDD to your Documents folder then open
Outlook and do File-Open-Outlook Data File and navigate to where you put it.
