I want to back up my Outlook 2000 personal folder file (*.pst) in

[Guest]

I am running Windows 98 SE and it has become so corrupt that I can no longer
start it in Safe Mode within Windows. I would like to backup my email from
Outlook 2000 before re-installing Windows. I will need to do so from DOS
since I can't start windows. Where are my *.pst email messages stored in DOS?
For some reason I can't find the directory in DOS where the Microsoft mail
*pst files and the *.pab address book file are stored. However, I am able to
read and copy other files from the hard disk in DOS to my ZIP drive with the
aid of a setup boot disk. I know that the *pst file is usually stored in
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst in Windows but I would like to know the
location of it in DOS so that I can backup this remaining file to my ZIP disk.

Trusting that somebody will advise me on how to find and backup the Outlook
*.pst in DOS.

Thanks

Martin Healy

The dos location is the same as the win location.
OL2k doesnt use the pab it uses Contacts, and this is contained within the
pst
