Okay: This were I am on this issue. I have used the microsoft scanpst.exe to see if any of the pst files or corrupted. The error log says that they are okay so this should not be the problem. As mentioned previously I am attempting to review old messages on a completely different computer so I don't care if it overwrites each time I add a different pst file. I have tried the import function with no success, I have also tried copy and paste the pst directly into the outlook. I think that it could be that it needs to be pointed at the file as I have got a message saying that the path specified for the file is not valid, but I do not know how to correct this. Thanks for any help.
