Yes, unless you copy that data to the old .pst file.

|| Are you using Outlook or Outlook Express,
||
|| 1) for OE, open OE, check "Tools"-"Options"-"Maintenance" in the
|| middle, there is "Store Folder". Just copy the dbx files, restart OE.
|| 2) for Outlook, open Outlook, check "File"-"Data File Management",
|| also copy pst files out. In new Outlook, after first open, close it,
|| delete the original pst file created, re-open Outlook, it said pst
|| missing, then you give a new path, restart Outlook, it should be ok.
