New Error message I got
"Properties for this information service must be defined prior to use"

Then:

"The file C:\\outlook\\mailbox.pst is not a personal folders file"

I am using Outlook 2000, Windows 98 SE, and no other software, yet.

Any ideas why this didn't work? I removed the read-only and archive attributes. Last hard drive format used 98SE and Outlook 2000, so it should have worked?

New I suspect so, bad hardrive format
It may have put the exported PST file into a bad cluster or something before I burned it to a CDR disk?
