"Outlook.pst cannot be accessed - 0x80040116" error usually gets resolved using Inbox Repair tool (Scanpst.exe). Running only Inbox Repair tool doesn't fix Outlook problem though it shows that no errors were found. Reason being index of the .PST file is damaged. For resolving this issue, firstly run the "2 GB Truncation" tool, then run the Inbox Repair tool, and then open the repaired PST file.
Running 2 GB Truncation tool
"2 GB Truncation" tool known as Pst2gb.exe can be downloaded from the Microsoft Download Center. After download, you can see the other files with its exe, which are Msstdfmt.dll, Msvbvm60.dll, Pst2gb.exe, Readme.rtf, and Readme.txt.
(http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=B33B1DFF-6F50-411D-BBDF-82019DDA602E&displaylang=en)
Now follow the given steps:
1.Click Start, and then click Search.
2.Under What do you want to search for? click All files and folders.
3.In the All or part of the file name box, type *.pst.
4.In the Look in list, click Local Hard Drives (C:), and then click Search.
5.Note the path to the .pst file that you want to repair. By default, this file is named Outlook.pst.
6.Click Start, click Run, type pathpst2gb.exe -s, and then click OK.
7.Click Continue, and then click Browse.
8.Click the .pst file that you want to repair, and then click Open. By default, this file is named Outlook.pst.
9.Click Create, type a new unique file name for the .pst file such as Outlook-2 in the File name box, and then click Save.
10.In the Oversized PST Recovery Tool dialog box, click Start.
11.After you run the tool, click OK, and then click Close.
Running Inbox Repair tool to fix Outlook PST
1.Double-click scanpst.exe file.
2.Click Browse, and then open the folder that contains the new .PST file that you created by using the "2 GB Truncation" tool.
3.Click the new .PST file that you created and then Open.
4.In the Inbox Repair Tool dialog box, click Start.
5.When the file has been scanned, click Repair to repair the errors in the file.
6.When you receive the "Repair complete" message, click OK.
7.Restart the computer.
Now open the new created .PST file with Outlook. During the whole process there are chances of Outlook email data getting corrupt. But you can now fix Outlook PST easily with Outlook recovery software. This software recovers and restores emails and other email stuff from damaged Outlook PST files.

Troubleshooting Common Outlook Error
Many people have loads and loads on personal contacts in their Outlook email contacts folder and if they are moving to a new computer these contacts won't be stored on the new machine. So they need to make a backup of these and import them into the Outlook on their new machine. If you follow the below steps you can easily save your personal contacts on a CD/DVD/USB drive and then import them back into Outlook on your new machine. This will save you hours of re-entering your contacts into the list.
To back up the Contacts folder, you need to export the folder to a file in Personal Folders file (.pst) (Personal Folders file (.pst): Data file that stores your messages and other items on your computer. You can assign a .pst file to be the default delivery location for e-mail messages. You can use a .pst to organize and back up items for safekeeping).
- On the File menu, click Import and Export.
- Click Export to a file, and then click Next.
- In the Create a file of type list, click Personal Folder File (.pst), and then click Next.
- In the Select a folder to export from list, click Contacts.
- If you have subfolders below the Contacts folder that you want to include, select the Include subfolders check box.
- Click Next.
- Click Browse, choose a location for the file, such as My Documents, and then type a name for your backup file, such as ContactsBackup.pst.
- Click OK.
- Click Finish.
- In the Name box, type My Contacts Backup.
- Type the encryption and password settings if you need them, and then click OK
- On the File menu, click Import and Export.
- Click Import form another program or file, and then click Next.
- In the Select file type to import from list, click Personal Folder File (.pst), and then click Next.
- In the Select a file to import list, click find your file.
- In the options choose the option you would like (replace, allow, or do not import duplicates)
- Click Next.
- Click Finish and it will import the .pst file and put the files where you specified.
Once you have completed all of the steps above then you will want to check the location where you put the files, in my case I want to check the contacts list and see if the new ones were put in there. This process can be used to transfer contacts from one machine to another for your Outlook 2003. Since these files are saved on the local machine and not on the exchange server if you don't do the import export then you will have to re-enter all of this information.

Is your Computer intensely delayed? Here have been Some Tips To Improve the opening of your computer
Is your computer suddenly running slower than usual? Are there some programs or files that suddenly you can't access or open? These are just few of the problems computer users like you face. If your computer suddenly behaves differently than usual, it is quite certain that there is a problem. What you don't know is that a virus maybe causing all of your issues.
Viruses are rampant nowadays. Sometimes you don't even know you have one, until it makes your computer crash. Nobody wants that to happen. There are a number of ways on how to avoid being infected by these viruses.
I'm pretty sure you have heard about some of the anti-virus applications in the market. If you don't have one, you'd better install one. There are numerous anti-virus applications online that can be downloaded for free. These applications are your main line of defense against these viruses.
If you already have an anti-virus installed, you may think you are all set. Not yet. You have to keep your application up-to-date. Updated anti-viruses will protect you from the latest threats in the internet. You can set the program to look for updates on a regular basis. In addition, you should also set the program to automatically scan your computer regularly. This way, you are ensuring that your computer is clean and safe at all times.
In line with this, you should also be careful in opening emails and email attachments. If you do not know, viruses can easily spread in emails. If one of your email contact's computers is infected, it could send by itself to your email address. Thus, giving you the virus in the form of email attachments. In order to avoid this, you should be very careful in opening emails. You can do this by first checking the sender and the subject line. Try to see if this sender would typically send you an email with that subject line. If it seems out of the ordinary, then you might as well check it with the sender if he or she really sent you that email. Furthermore, you should always scan all email attachments before opening them in your computer.
Along with the anti-virus, you should also have a firewall installed. No, I'm not referring to the one you put at your houses to prevent fire from spreading. I'm talking about a firewall application for your computer. To keep it simple, a firewall acts like a gatekeeper between your computer and the internet. It checks out everything that goes in and goes out of your computer. In this way, you can prevent hackers and identity thefts in breaking in your computer and steal important information such as credit card numbers and bank account numbers. Also, you somehow prevent unwanted files that could be possible threats for your computer. Through firewalls, you can also control which programs can gain access to the internet.
These things that I have mentioned are the most basic ways in protecting your computer along with the data you have in it. As all things in the world, you cannot expect everything to be perfect. New viruses come out on a regular basis. Because of this, I suggest that you should always have a backup copy of your files. When I say backup, I do not mean that you save another copy of the files on the hard drive. But rather, you should save them in an external storage device. These external storage devices can be in the form of USB flash drives, CDs, and even DVDs. In doing so, you secure all your important files just in case something unexpected happens.
