Default Copying .pst file.

I have a new computer, and I want to move my Outlook.pst file to the new one.

When I load Office 2003 on the new machine it forces me to create an email
account /user. It then becomes my "Personal Folder".

Now what I really want is my 'old' data to be put on the new machine, a Dell
laptop, and be my "personal folder", however, I can't find the default
'outlook.pst' file on the new machine. I can't find the ...\local
settings\applications\microsoft\outlook folder. Is it just 'hidden' or am I
perhaps missing something or an easier way to do this. I must not be the
first person to do this?

If it is hidden, how do I unhide it to copy over it?

Thanks,
jwb
