Chaging storage folder/file for all accounts

R

Ronchese

Hello.

I am new to Outlook 2003, and I have doubt about changing the location where
this program should save my e-mails and etc.

Today, the pst files for the Inbox and Personal Folders are apparently
stored in a default
directory (c:\Documents and Settings\User\etc....). I can't see options
enabled to change it, I just see disabled (gray) options.

I would like to change it to any other folder in my drive D, so I dont lose
it if I need format
the drive C.

How can I do that?
Will this change import the data already received on the default directory?

With Outlook closed, move the pst file to whatever location you desire.
Then, when you re-open Outlook, it will complain that it can't find the pst
file. Navigate to where you put it, and Robert is your Father's brother!
