C:\Documents and Settings\Dan Dixon\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook is what I am typing in for the Inbox Repair Tool to
run but I get the following message: "C:\Documents and Settings\Dan
Dixon\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook" is a directory and
not a full path. Enter the path and filename you want tom scan.

I have Windows Xp and Outlook 2007. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

You have to add the name of the PST to the end of that folder path. It will
be something like "outlook.pst". However, there's nothing sacred about that
path, since PSTs can be anywhere you put them on your hard drive and there's
nothing sacred about the name "outlook.pst", except the file type ".pst".
The name portion will be whateve you chose when you created the PST.
