Need .bat file to copy Outlook .pst file to other computers. HELP!

Can anyone please help me? I know there is a problem syncronizing Outlook
but I really don't need to enter Outlook data on my networked computers. I
just need my networked computers to view the Outlook data that is entered on
my main server computer. I might want to handle this two ways. First, I
have the .pst file in Network Neighborhood but I'm not sure how to point my
networked systems to look at this .pst file on the network in Outlook. How
do I do this (if possible)? Also, I might want to copy the .pst file from
network neighborhood to a networked computer's disk. Can anyone tell me how
to set up a small .bat file that would copy a file from one directory to
another. I've never done this before. Please help! Thanks!

Placing pst-files on a networkshare is not recommended and unsupported by
Microsoft. The proper way to back-up your pst-file to a network location is
to use the pst back-up add-in provided by Microsoft. You can configure it to
copy the pst-file to a network location when you close Outlook.
