Where does Outlook 2000 store my calendar info?

[Muse]

I installed Windows 2000 Pro SP3 the other day and it's a disaster. I'm going to Ghost back my Windows 2000 partition to where it was before the "upgrade", that is to SP2. The only problem is that I've made some changes to my Outlook 2000 SR1 Calendar. Is there some way I can save this information from my present Win2000 SP3 and restore it after I restore my Ghost image of SP2? I have my Microsoft Office 2000 installed on a different partition, but when I restored my SP2 Ghost image the first time (yes I did it once and tried again to install SP3 and get it working right, but I'm giving up for now) I lost my changes to calendar entries. I assume that stuff is stored on my Win2000 OS partition, therefore. I figured Documents and Settings, but I don't see it. I'm not on a network and the machine is configured to figure that anyone booting the machine is me and I'm the administrator, of course. Thanks for any help here.

All things Outlook are stored in your .pst file (usually called Outlook.pst). I can't remember the default location of the file but I'm pretty sure it's in one of the hidden folders under Documents and Settings. Just do a search for the .pst file making sure that hidden files are showing.

It is stored in your PST file.

Generally located in:
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst

You also will need to display all the Hidden Files and Folders.
Goto Windows Explorer
Tools\Folder Options\View\Hidden Files and Folders
click "Show hidden files and Folders"

I ALWAYS display all hidden files and folders. Been in that habit from day one. I took a DOS class (best class I ever took, was my opinion after taking it, and I can't say I've had a better one since... well, maybe). I did NOT see that file in that folder and I DID look. I'm searching my entire system for *.pst right now and will report what I find... Oh! That is tricky! Local Settings... I didn't think to look there. I was looking in: I:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Microsoft\Office

Well, I did an Export right from the Outlook GUI and presumably I'll be able to restore it all from that. Now, I'm going back to SP2...
