Hi Allen,
just tried again. When I try to create a new .pst file it just tells me
'operation failed' in a message box. I still think this is some how
associated with outlook or my logon 'Peter Nolan' not having the
access/authority to own the folder or create new .pst files as far as
the outlook profile is concerned. I tried to create a new .pst because
if I import a .pst from somewhere it has to go somewhere and it would
go into my outlook.pst folder if it does not go somewhere else. I
think the not being able to create a new .pst is the same problem I am
having.....any ideas? (Or anyone else who has moved outlook xp .pst
files from win2000 pro to xp pro? I'm sure I can't be the only
one...;-) )

Much appreciated.

Peter
