I'm trying to transfer Outlook files from one computer to another I did it successfully exporting as a personal.pst file but since I've upgraded one computer to Office XP and the other is still Office 2000 I can't upload the files exported from XP to 2000. I get an incorrect format when it tries to upload. Anyone one help or know what should be the best format file to export the information to and from. Thanks
