Hello

How can I change the default path of Outlook 2003 ( at present in C:\ hard
disk 1 ) with all its sub-folders like Inbox, Sent Items, Deleted Items,
Contacts etc; including data to a new location in hard disk 2 ?
Thank you.

Regards

You might try (while Outlook is closed):
- go to the Control Panel > Mail applet
- Click Data Files
- remove the reference to your current PST file
- move the PST file to where you want it
- Add the new data file (same old file, new location)
- return to the main mail applet dialog & click Accounts
- View/Change existing email accounts
- make sure the location to deliver mail to is set to the right file

You may have to change all your rules that include folder references
