| | Q: How can I back up my e-mails using Microsoft Outlook 2000/98? | |

1. Open Outlook.
2. Right-click Outlook Today in the Folder List and on the shortcut menu click Properties for <folder name>, and then click on Advanced.
3. Note the location of the PST file from the Path field, and back it up.

However, the path you see in this box may be different on your computer. The PST can be stored anywhere on your hard disk. If other PST files are defined for storage of Outlook items and you want to back them up, use the same procedure to locate the path to each PST.
4. Backup any other .pst files found by doing a search in My Computer for *.pst.
