hi list
many thanks for the suggestions to do with the SAP attachments in outlook.being looked into as i type.
i have another question now.
i have another user who has several outlook pst's on her local c drive, she has a personal folder on the network drive also.i need some software that will backup the local psts on to a designated folder on the server ( after she comes back from her travels )and overwrite if possible without any intervention from the user,we have tried using xcopy to do this but it is not getting all the data up to the server drive.
is their any application ( free hopefully )that could do this, x copy sounded ideal with the user just having to click on a batch file on the desktop but alas not happening.

Regards
