This program snaps-in to Outlook. So, I don't think it cares where the = PST files are. After you install it you won't see any folders or icons = in your Start bar. It is part of Outlook and when you close Outlook it = will then prompt you for the initial configuration. You can then set = the necessary parameters. Glad I could help. I think this is the first time I was able to offer = some useful information on this board. I've used a lot though... -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On = Behalf Of McDonald, Christine, Ms, DCAA Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2004 12:38 PM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mso] Re: Search will not locate Outlook *.pst files Do you know if you can specify a different location where the pst = folders are stored other than the normal default location? Not the backups, but the actual PST folders? I would like to suggest we use the program here at work, but our PST folders are not stored in the default C:\Documents and Settings\Profiles\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data = location, but are stored somewhere else. So we would need to be able to specify where the pst folders are stored? Thanks, Christine McDonald Technical Specialist WR Webmaster Western Regional Office Information Technology Division (RSA-4) There's a great utility that will do this automatically for you. It is = =3D called "Personal Folders Backup" and it can be found on Download.com. = =3D It's made from Microsoft and amazingly, it doesn't cost anything and IT = =3D WORKS! They should try this more often. It can be set to backup all contents of the PST (mail, notes, tasks, =3D calendar, etc.) to any location (including network drives) on a =3D scheduled basis, daily, weekly, etc. I hope this helps... -- Binary/unsupported file stripped by Ecartis -- -- Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature -- File: smime.p7s ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx = or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to=20 mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the = quotes) in the subject line.
