In Windows XP, I believe the PST folders are considered hidden files,
which may be causing a problem in finding them if searching for *.pst.
I can check when I get home, but I seem to remember having a problem
locating them when I first switched to XP.=20

Your personal folders are actually a file on your hard drive with a
*.pst extension...by default the name would be Outlook.pst

In Windows XP, the default location for this pst file is=20
C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst=20

Subject: [mso] Personal Folders in Outlook 2000

Can anyone tell me where I might find the Personal Folders that are used
in Outlook?  I am using Windows XP, and I guess the secondary question
is if the file(s) which stores the Personal Folders would be located in
the specific users home directory in Documents and Settings or
elsewhere? Thanks for your help,

Mike Rubinfeld
