I want to open an OST file in Outlook 2013. I understand the difference between ost and pst. The reason I need to do this is that after a harddrive failure, I am unable to look at how a user had their local archive set up. I was hoping I could look at a recovered copy of their .OST and see how each of their folders was set to archive.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I am reading differing opinions on whether an OST file can be accessed. TIA
If you want to access OST file, then you have to convert it into PST file first as PST files are the ones that can be imported into Outlook, not OST file. To do the same, you can use any OST to PST Converter. You can give a shot to Stellar OST to PST converter for the same - http://www.stellarphoenixrecovery.com/ost-extractor.php

With all your help I was able to solve this by capturing recipient address entry, adding it as a new item, showing alias, then deleting the recipient: Sub ReadRecpDetail() Dim myOlApp As Outlook.Application Dim myItem As Outlook.mailItem Dim myRecipient As Outlook.recipient Dim recipient As Outlook.recipient Dim SMTPaddress As String Dim...
Use the Sort method of the Items class to sort the collection of items by the specified property. Sort only affects the order of items in a collection. It does not affect the order of items in an explorer view. Sub SortByRecievedDate() Dim myNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace Dim myFolder As Outlook.Folder...
To make the From label show the right value, you need to set the PR_SENT_REPRESENTING_EMAIL_ADDRESS property (DASL name http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x0065001F) using MailItem.PropertyAccessor.SetProperty.
