Locaton of storage files
 
I use Windows XP Pro with Office 2007, or at least I try to. Recently I had
to set up an alternate profile on the PC, including Outlook. I soon
discovered that I did not know where Outlook stores calendar and contacts and
notes. I thought they would all be under
My Profile\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst
But now I don't think they are stored in the same file. Does anyone know
where the information is stored for calendar and notes and contacts?

The outlook data file, ie *.pst, by default named outlook.pst, which is a
hidden file

That is what I thought, but when I created a new profile and copied the .pst
file from the old proile to the new one, only the mail was accessible. I had
to export from the old profile and import to the new profile. Thhis caused
me to doubt the .pst being the only data file.

In a new profile you add a data file, by browsing to the location of the old
data file.
