What is the best way to transfer a pst setting from one computer to
another that are connected?
Can I just copy from one to the other?
Will there be any bad things happen by coping?
Help please
 
It would be useful if you at least posted your Outlook version.
I would suggest you read the Help Files for the current version:

Sorry about the version
I am using outlook 2003
The reason for my inquiry is it seems to be a lot of difference of
ideas of what is good and what is bad.
I have copied mine over to the other computer a couple of times and it
does not seen to hurt anything that I can see. I just wanted to verify
that fact in the news groups.
 
Overwriting a PST file is the worst way to transfer data. It will
corrupt settings every time and often the entire profile.
Use only the method listed in the article.
