I am sure you got the method by pc-bilder's comment.
Lets say you have one pst already in your OL
You can import the emails from outlook express to get the second PST.
Now you should see 2 PSTs in your Outlook.
Just copy the emails (select all or CTRL + A) from one PST and paste in another or just drag and drop.. Now you would have one PST with all emails and other data..
Remove the other PST and now you got one big PST..

hi,
i've seen this utility work, and it's also one of the "accepted answers" from an identical question here on EE. http://www.soft32.com/down
I guess you are talking about removing duplicates in outlook.
I see there are few sharewares to remove it.

Hi sunilsoni,
here's how you merge the dbx files:
http://support.microsoft.c
the to import into outlook:
1-in outlook express go to file>export>messages (and contacts if you wish), and this will guide you through the process of exporting to outlook.
2-in outlook, File>import & export>import internet mail & addresses (these should be similar in your version of outlook), follow the prompts.
i think you'll need to remember where you exported to from outlook express, in order to point to that/those files when you do the outlook importing in step 2.
