**SOLVED** I'm having problems opening an Outlook *.pst file.

it might be that you need to take ownership of the file. i assume your logon as admin authority? sounds like you dont have the authority to use the file. right click on the file, Outlook.pst, and select the 'security' tab. under 'group or user names', what is there?

Office Depot 40GB Maxtor $39 AR (or less...)

i was just wondering if i should go ahead and order it for instore pickup. but with my luck, the OD near me will not have the ata133 models, and the price near me is $99.99, not $89.99. maybe it is a special in your area?
