.pst's get corrupted. You could try scanpst.exe a few times to try to fix it.
Or use the backup. <wicked laugh> William -----Original Message----- From: Desiree Herrmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2002 1:39 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: pst troubles, please help I've got an evil .pst file that won't open now that I've reformatted the PC and recreated the Outlook account. This .pst file is approx. 584MB, not exceeding the 2GB limit... But, it's crashing everything that tries to get to it. When I open the mailbox, after approx. 7 minutes of cranking away at 100%CPU utilization, then I try to open this Personal Folders file, I get a message that I don't have permission to open it. What? I wonder if there's a way to get into this file? I've searched TechNet, Google, my archive of messages from this list. Anyone have a suggestion? Thanks in advance.
