I recently had to move my Outlook from my C drive to my D drive on the
same computer. I am unable for many reasons to store data on my C
drive, and will need to move the data file from the Outlook to my D
drive. I have tried changing it through "add" in the file management
folder, i have tried by moving the file and waiting for a prompt from
Outlook, and nothing seems to work. I have Xp and Microsoft Outlook
2003. Can anyone help me move the file? Thanks!

What happens when you try each method?

If by 'add in File Management' you mean the Control Panel>Mail Applet that
simply adds a new pst
