MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / November 2005How to retrieve archived messages
In outlook 98, can someone tell me how to retrieve a single message that has been auto archived. The only (clumsy) way I have found, is to import the archive file ARCHIVE.PST. The only problem with this is that ALL the old messages are imported and then seem to remain in outlook forever. Is there a more elegant way of doing it? I just want to look in the archive file, select the message i want and then carry on as before without having to import all the messages since time began. > In outlook 98, can someone tell me how to retrieve a single message > that has been auto archived.

I guess you could try a search engine or the shareware sites to see if anyone has come up with an alternative. > In outlook 98, can someone tell me how to retrieve a single message > that has been auto archived.

The archive folders will all be separate and you can fetch single items from them with no problems.

Ah, so that's how it's done. Will give it a try. Amazing that it doesn't say how to do it in 'Help' or the Microsoft knowledge base! >> In outlook 98, can someone tell me how to retrieve a single message >> that has been auto archived.

Well I tried this and the items do become available in a separate folder. However, the next time I open Outlook, the archived folder is still available..... something not quite right here. Any other suggestions? >>> In outlook 98, can someone tell me how to retrieve a single message >>> that has been auto archived.
