Outlook.pst Access Denied

    W2K crashed recently and I had XP installed on another drive. Is there anyway that I can transfer my outlook.pst file across. It is currently telling me Access is Denied and have tried loads of things. If you know of this problem or someone or somewhere I can get help with this it'd be much appreciated.

    I have lost 6 months of my mail with passwords, business and the such.

    Sam

    make sure it is not in use by outlook (!)
    If outlook is open file - exit and Log off (not just exit)
    Kill mapisp32 if is a running task

    check permissions - ie you are adminisrator - and have tried taking ownership etc. ?

    and I take you aren't using XP's encryption system...
