I move between a couple of places. Rather than take computers with me I load data on to a memory stick and take that with me.

I have just got a new computer to replace a broken one in one location.The problem is it runs on VISTA and I can’t find the place where the .pst file goes so I can transfer across all my Outlook data. I have loaded Office 2003 on to it not Office 2007.

As I said I am using Outlook 2003 but the trouble is I can find
C:\documents and settings\myname\local settings\application data\Microsoft\outlook
on the old computer here working XP, but I cannot find that file on VISTA.

Can anybody point me in the correct place,

Thanks

Although I use 2007 on Vista, my pst file is located at
C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook

Try looking there.
Best of luck

I use Office 2003 on Vista and the file is at

C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook

You will have to show hidden files in folder options to see them though.
