Donald Keating | Outlook.pst on Mon, 18 Jun 2012 13:42:51 -0400 I know this doesn't have anything to do with Xbase++ but, maybe someone can give me some advice. My daughter's Outlook.pst file has been corrupted and is unusable. The file is 1.05 GB. I've run scanpst.exe on it and get error 80040818. Tried Stellar Phoenix Outlook PST Repair. It will get back a usable PST but no data in it. Any and all help/suggestions will be much appreciated! >don< | |
AUGE_ OHR | Re: Outlook.pst on Mon, 18 Jun 2012 21:07:41 +0200 hi, are you running under Win7 ? before try to "repair" a File under Win7 you should look for a "Shadow-Copy" goto c:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\ and look under Property of Outlook.pst for last "Shadow-Copy" greetings by OHR Jimmy | |

Donald Keating | Re: Outlook.pst on Wed, 20 Jun 2012 19:14:51 -0400 Hi Mark, Yes, scanpst.exe was first thing I tried. All it does is give error 80040818 with no explanation. Google "80040818" gives a lot of results but, none work. Thanks for your reply. >don< On Wed, 20 Jun 2012 14:16:05 -0700, Mark Sergent wrote: > On Mon, 18 Jun 2012 13:42:51 -0400, Donald Keating wrote: > >> I know this doesn't have anything to do with Xbase++ but, maybe someone can >> give me some advice. >> >> My daughter's Outlook.pst file has been corrupted and is unusable.

Donald Keating | Re: Outlook.pst on Thu, 21 Jun 2012 19:17:40 -0400 No Wolfgang, I didn't try that cause don't believe repair of Office includes repair of any data files. I've decided to quit trying to fix the PST in hopes it will be a learned lesson for my daughter that Daddy wasn't kidding when he said to be sure you do regular backup of your valuable data. She ahd a great deal of data in that PST file; some she'll never retrieve. The time she spends rebuilding it will be time she can contemplate about how much it would be if she had a backup. Thanks to all who suggested solutions. >don< On Thu, 21 Jun 2012 07:52:14 +0200, Wolfgang Ciriack wrote: > Am 21.06.2012 01:14, schrieb Donald Keating: >> Hi Mark, >> >> Yes, scanpst.exe was first thing I tried.

AUGE_ OHR | Re: Outlook.pst on Fri, 22 Jun 2012 06:14:29 +0200 hi, perhaps you can write a small "Application" and put it into "Autostart" or "Taskplaner" simple you just need to make a Icon, where she can click on, from a *.BAT/CMD which contain "COPY *.PST X:\SAVE\*.* greetings by OHR Jimmy p.s. i have a small Progressbar Sample which can do this Job. look at Pablos www.xbwin.com for latest DXE LIB Version which incude the Sample. | |

Klemens Lichter | Re: Outlook.pst on Mon, 24 Dec 2012 13:03:33 +0100 Don, I remember a utility, I think DBXTRACT.EXE or similiar, that can extract all or some mails (if you specify a filter) out of Outlook-Files as an .eml-file into a specified folder. After this you remove this file form the outlook-folder and start Outlook again. It will rebuild this file new and empty. Than you can drag an drop the .eml-files from the folder into the now empty outlook folder and so rebuild this all. With this utility I was able to help several people, but as I remember they all used Outlook-Express. So I´m not shure if Outlook uses the same files than OE and that this utility will work. Just try it.

Klemens Lichter | Re: Outlook.pst on Mon, 24 Dec 2012 13:16:01 +0100 I googled some minutes and found this: http://www.oehelp.com/Default.aspx It seems that this utility is for Outlook Express only (.dbx-files). But maybee you find a similiar tool for .pst-files.
