open messages are marked as read as soon as they are opened and she is most likely using a 'hide read messages view' so it appears to disappear when the message is closed. if she's 'opening' in the reading pane, the default is to mark messages read after xx seconds. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks?...

Can you still open the original pst-file? If so, create a new one and move your data to it. If you use Outlook 2007 or 2003 make sure you create a UNICODE pst-file. If a previous version of Outlook, create 2 pst-files. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more...
