We recently went to Exchange and now one of our Administrators is receiving
this error in Outlook, for all of his folders,but, I've shown only one
folder error here.

'Error while archiving folder "Calendar" in store "Mailbox - user". The file
\\server\users$\user\My Documents\Outlook.pst is not compatible with this
version of the Personal Folders information service. Contact your
administrator.'

The server that this error refers to is a file server that his arvhie.pst
was located originally. I thought the .pst went away with Exchange and went
to .ost.

The ost-files are only being used for caching purposes. They contain a local
copy of the Exchange mailbox. Archiving to a pst-file can still be done.

Start off with moving the pst-file back to the local client. Connecting to a
pst-file on a network location is not supported and recommended by
Microsoft. Only connect to pst-files which are stored locally.

Someone here also received an error about archiving, but it's a little
different than Kathy's, so I'm not sure what to do. (Also, I don't know a
whole lot about Outlook).

This came up for someone by simply opening Outlook: "Error while archiving
'calendar' in store 'user name'. Path does not exist. Make sure the path is
correct."

Any dummied-down advice is appreciated!!
