Only if you have made sure your current Outlook profile isn't using any of

Hi All,

I am using outlook 2003. I updated it from outlook 2000. I noticed on
my hard drive that there are several mailbox.pst files. Are these
leftovers from outlook 2000? Can I delete them if outlook 2003 doesn't
need them? Thanks for any help.

Within Outlook, Personal Folders, rt click, Properties.....check the path
And since you upgraded, also check what it states in Format, if it states
97 - 2002 there are some other things you need to do.

Hi DL,


I have a stupid question. How do I get to the properties to find the path
to my pst files. I forgot to mention that I am blind and use a screen
reader. I don't use a conventional mouse. Is there any easy way to view
the properties? thanks for any help.

I'm not sure how a screen reader works, but the Properties for your PST file
reside in the context menu (R click menu) of the root folder in your Outlook
profile (usually called "Personal Folders" or "Outlook Today"). The
"Advanced" Button will then expose the name of the file, including the path
statement.

You need to check the path to your PST files in Outlook to see which you are
using. If you have more than one Outlook profile, check in each.
