File can be located on drive but message asks what program created it and what program do I want to use to open it. I cannot get of the options to open the file, what do I do?? Office Outlook 2003.

Office Outlook 2003. Bob You must open it from within Outlook. Start Outlook and click File>Open>Outlook Data File. Browse to the PST, select it, and click OK.  SignatureBrian Tillman Brian, Used your formula but it still will not allow me access to my contacts, tells me that I do not have access to the hard drive. I am an old fella and not very computer literate. How about trying again with me. Thank You very much. Bob > > Used Microsoft Online to create backup copy of Contacts.

I don't know what "Microsoft Online" is. Also include in what format you saved the data and where the backup file currently resides. SignatureBrian Tillman |
