Exporting customized views settings

Hello All,

I am trying to create some customized views (added new columns, etc. to
calendar view) on my computer using Outlook 2003 and I would like to
give my settings to a client (uses XP, not sure on Outlook 2003, though)
to use for their work.

Is there a way to export a file that contains these settings (and maybe
custom forms, etc.) and send it to my client? Hope this is not too
broad a question. Also, please direct me to the proper group if this is
not it.

Thanks for helping out,
Alex

It's not obvious how, but you can use a PST file to back up your views.
Here's a link to an article I wrote on how to manage this:

If you are not connecting to an Exchange server, you will not be able to use
the quick-and-dirty method and will need to add some additional steps to use
the other technique. Specifically, you will need to to make a copy of any
folder-specific view as a general view applying to all [mail, contact, etc.]
folders. Use the steps described in the topic on restoring views. Then you
will be able to back up those general views by using the backup technique
outlined.
