Well darn - 2003 and 2007 have different extension names.  2007 is .pip
while 2003 is .pst
I've looked on the web but can't seem locate any additional help (unless I
want to pay MSN $45)..
I tried the email for Dian but it bounced back.
Any other folks I might be able to call?
Thanks
Gaynel

Tools> Options> Mail Setup> Data Files button

That filename and location should be what you told it during installation, 
or the default address if you didn't tell it differently.
