To find out where it is, RIGHT-click on the folder name in Outlook,
select Properties. I think you then hit the Advanced button. Somewhere
in there it provides the path and file name of the folder; you can
mark and copy, then paste into the address bar of an Explorer or
IExplore window, then backspace over the name, then press Enter. Note
that once you find the file, you must exit Outlook before doing
anything with it. Even when you close the folder in Outlook so that it
is no longer listed, Outlook still has hold on the file until you
exit.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
