Except that it contains an error. You do not copy the data file to the
default location. If you do, there is a good chance you will overwrite another data file and corrupt your profile since both Outlook 2002 and 2007 give their data files the same name by default and few users bother to change them. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Barbara Sankovic" wrote in message ...

Good call, Russ.
Stillwater, if you used Outlook 2007 on the new computer before, consider saving your data file to My Documents instead. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Except that it contains an error.

It actually applies to any recent version of Outlook. All create a default
data file called "Outlook.pst," and a new installation will create one before a user even has a chance to migrate data. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Barbara Sankovic" wrote in message ...
