Hi Everyone,
Not so much a problem, more a matter of satisfying my curiosity!
In a network of 8 PCs all running Windows XP Professional, I have suggested to
everyone that they periodically locate and save (to the Server) their
Outlook.pst files for use in the event of a total disaster with the own work
station. All was well until one person was unable to find the file using the
XP Search facility. The file exists in the normal location (Documents and
settings>user>Local Settings>ApplicationData>Microsoft>Outlook) so can anyone
explain why it could not be found? I have selected 'Show hidden files and
folders' which I thought may have obstructed the search. (This particular PC
is using Outlook 2002 SP2 and XP Service Pack 1).
Thanks for any comments anyone may have,
Roger
