On my computer at home, I run Outlook 2003. On my office computer I run
Outlook 2000. I created a backup of the pst file on my home computer to take
to the office. When I tried to do a restore or view the files from Outlook
2003, I got a message that it was an incompatible file format? Is there a
way around this?

create a pst using the old format and copy the items to it to - File, New,
Outlook data file and choose the ol97 format.
