Hello

I have Outlook 2003. How can I point Outlook to find the .pst file at
some location other then the default one.

I can do this with Outlook 2000 by just locating the file where I want
it. The next time I bring up Outlook, it allows you to browse the file
when it can't find it anymore. Outlook 2003 does not do this. It looks
for the file in the default location, and then shuts down when it can't
find it there

Appreciate any suggestions

With Outlook closed, got to "Control Panel" then double click on "Mail". At
the "Mail Setup" dialogue, click the "Data Files" button. Here you can add
your new .PST data file and remove any old ones.

It will shut down the first time, but will eventually prompt you for the
location. You can also go to Control Panel, Mail and add a new location
from there and make it the default profile.
