Title: Microsoft Outlook -- how to transfer data files?
Post by: Thomas Nugent on October 10, 2005, 04:54:26 PM

I just bought a new Dell computer and loaded it with Microsoft Outlook 2000 program.  I copied the files outlook.pst and archive.pst onto a CD on my old computer.   When I try to open the outlook.pst file on my new computer, I get a message saying "Properties for this information service must be defined before use."

Can anyone tell me how I can input the outlook files so they work on my new computer?
