change outlook express data folder location

[see.cher]

I would like to move the location of the outlook express folder in the
"documents and settings" to another drive.
I can just copy them but what do I need to change so OE knows where
they are?

as in changing the target of the My Documents folder....

Download the tutorial I have on the front page of my site

"*NEW* Tutorial: Managing and organizing your computer hard drive space and
files "

that has this information among other things

Create the folder first.
In OE, Tools, Options, Maintenance tab, Store Folder button, Change, point
to the new folder.

See http://www.insideoe.com/files/store.htm#movestore

You *must* first create the new folder to hold the data before changing the
location of the store from within OE!
