Well I have successfully managed to destroy my Saturday night by playing with Outlook.
Some of you may be aware that I got a new PC recently (all the better to fold with).
Included on this machine was the latest version of Outlook, meaning that my old Outlook files were no longer valid.
Following the instructions I created a new .pst in the new format and then used the import function to ressurect my old archive of the past two years. Thinking all is well I decide to archive my newer files to this newly created .pst.
However being MS all it wishes to archive is folders, not the files, just the folders.
I am now two hours into this mess. I have sent multiple feedback forms to MS venting my frustration to alleviate some of the stress. My current technique is to move the new .pst to the desktop and then use the Archive funstion to create a new .pst when it can't find the new one. Doing this allowed me to archive a folder (and its contents!!!!) to the newest .pst. Now I am importing the older newer .pst into this .pst.
Fingers crossed.......
