Since you didn't mention what operating system in on the laptop, I hope this
helps.
Win9x:
\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook or
\Windows\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
NT:
\WINNT\Profiles\<userid>\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook or
\WINNT\Profiles\<userid>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
2K and above:
\Documents and Settings\<userid>\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook or
\Documents and Settings\<userid>\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook
Under 2K and above, the Application Data/Local Settings are hidden folders.
You can use Windows Explorer to copy the files from the old drive to the
new. Just make sure that you have full control over the files and that they
are not marked read only before using the Import/Export wizard in Outlook.
(File | Import and Export | Import from another program or file | Personal
Folders.)
