Default Copying Outlook 2003 from smaller to larger hard drive...

.... and I cannot find a .PST file! From what I read, if I want to copy
my mail from one hard drive to another, I just need to copy that file,
but I do a search for it and nothing turns up! I'm sure that I'm not
hiding system files in Windows Explorer. And I put the old drive back
in the PC to be sure my mail was still there, and it is. Is there
another file that Outlook 2003 uses besides a .PST? ( I don't need my
contacts or calendar, those are on my Palm Pilot and I can do a sync to
get those back). Any ideas? I'm bewildered!

Unless you are running against Exchange Server, you must have a PST file.
You are not searching correctly. Why don't you just look at its properties
when Outlook is open to see its name and location?
