Moving Outlook files

[Guest]

I want to move all my Outlook files to a diferent drive/partition on my
stand-alone PC and have read
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/assistance/HA011124801033.aspx. However, I
didn't get very far as the instruction for XP users states "In Control Panel,
click User Accounts, and then click Mail.". Control Panel | User Accounts |
no problem, but no sign of "Mail"!
HELP!

Hi BobR,

have a look on this site. I think this description is much better:

Thanks Oliver for this, but I get worried about following an instruction that
refers not to Outlook 2003, but Outlook 2002!
I have, however found that on a single user XP machine, the 'Mail' entry is
not got-at-able from the User Accounts area, but is available as a
stand-alone item in the Control Panel. From then on a very simple exercise!
Thanks, however, for your interest.

Hi Bob,

Thanks Oliver for this, but I get worried about following an instruction that

To move a PST file with Outlook 2003 is the same way as in Outlook 2002.
Sorry that I forget to write this information.

but no sign of "Mail"!

You must switch the view in the "Control Panel" to the "Classic View" in
Windows XP, then you will see "Mail".
