Why can't I find a .pst file I imported?

[Guest]

New computer with windows XP. I want to import my contacts from Outlook on
my old computer also running XP. I exported the contact list to a diskette
and successfully transferred the .pst file to My Documents on the new
computer. Next I imported the .pst file into Outlook. Now I cannot find the
file. Where is it hiding?

Which PST are you trying to find? You said you copied one into your My
Documents folder and Outlook normally creates the standard one it uses in
the C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook directory. Some of those directories are hidden so
you may have to turn on the viewing of hidden directories
