auto archive problem in outlook 2007Please tell me if you can reproduce this bug (or what I think is a bug): - on Outlook 2007 on Win Vista Ultimate 64bits - in settings, tell Outlook that the older elements (older than 6 months) must move from the main personal pst to the archive pst. Apply the same rule to all folders. - On ONE folder of main_personal.pst, right click > properties > auto archive, then set an option for not obeying the general auto archive rule, set the option to send the elements older than 12 months into archive*.pst - in archive folders, you can right click and set the options so that all elements should be totally deleted after 24 months. - Run auto archive and check the radio button that says the auto archive should follow each folder's auto archive rule. - You should get an error message saying to check the deleted items. - In this folder, an element called "Archive Log." says for each folder in the main pst : "Error while archiving folder "Deleted Items" in store "Personal Folders". The file C:\Documents and Settings\Me\My Documents\archive.pst cannot be opened." Thanks an see you Gren where are your personal folders stored? Vista doesn't use the 'my docs'
folder path. Is this a new computer or did you upgrade from XP? Did you move the profile from another computer or create it from scratch? -- Show quoteDiane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: dailytips-subscribe-requ***@lists.outlooktips.net Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: EMO-NEWSLETTER-SUBSCRIBE-REQU***@PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM "grendi" <ufoREMOVErobotTHISgrendizerusTO@CONTACTyahoo.MEcom> wrote in message news:50168F22-37A7-4F40-A62D-39BC016FEB4F@microsoft.com... > Hi all > > Please tell me if you can reproduce this bug (or what I think is a bug): > - on Outlook 2007 on Win Vista Ultimate 64bits > - in settings, tell Outlook that the older elements (older than 6 months) > must move from the main personal pst to the archive pst.

It's a new computer with a new windows vista installation, a new office installation, and a new pst, everything new! :) But I did import some datas from an Outlook 2003 pst into this outlook 2007 pst did you try to reproduce the bug? thanks g Try creating a new profile - unless you created that exact folder path on

The vista path is C:\Users\.... In the "main" pst folder, I was right clicking on , for example, the "deleted items" folder, and going to "properties". Then "autoarchive" tab then "archive this folder using these settings" Then choosing "move old items to" then clicking the "browse" button then choosing the folder C:\Users\me\Documents\blahblah\archive.pst Then click OK in the file browser... What I was NOT paying attention to, is that, despite all these clicks, the folder path under the "move old items to" was staying the same as before: the path of my pst file on my old computer running winxp. Perhaps this is the bug. Solution: I have to start windows vista's file explorer, browse to the location of the pst, copy the address as text, and paste it in the text filed under "move old items to". Then running autoarchive works without a problem. So thanks again Diane and have a great day :) Gz FYI: the folder path in Vista is C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\
