If you are certain that the file you created contains all your data and is
in a location where Outlook will be able to both read and write to it
reliably (i.e., not on a network drive), then you must first set that file
as the default for your profile (Tools Account Settings Data Files)
Once you restart Outlook, you will then be able to close (NOTE: not Delete)
the file that was previously your default. You cannot delete PST files from
within Outlook and must never attempt to. If you also want to delete this
file, do so from Windows Explorer.

I created an Outlook.pst data file on my removable drive. Now Outlook shows
2
Personal Folders: the default file and my own. How do I delete the
default
Personal Folders so I can automatically go to my own file when opening
Outlook 2007?
