Outlook 2007: How To Create a New Data File (PST)

1. Click File and select Data File Management.
2. Under the Data Files tab, click Add.
3. Select the desired type of data file.
4. Click OK.
5. In the new window, browse to the location that the file will be saved.
6. In the File name box, type the name for file.
7. Click OK.
8. In the Create Microsoft Personal Folders dialog box, type the name that will be displayed in Outlook for the data file in the Name box.
9. Click OK.
10. Click the Close button in the Account Settings dialog box.

Microsoft Outlook uses (PST file) personal folder to store Outlook emails, contacts, address book, notes and calendars etc. The PST file is loaded each time when you start MS Outlook. Even if you delete any email or you lost any contacts, they still are there in the PST file. Some time you get an error message while you open your outlook, as mention below.
• Cannot find Outlook.pst file
• Error has been detected in the .pst file
• .pst is not a personal file folder
• File patch could not be accessed.
• .pst can not be accessed – 0×80040600 or Unknown errors.
• An unknown error has occurred 0×80040118.
There can be many reasons for the above error messages, like Outlook PST file is affected by Virus attack, Corruption in .pst file header due to improper outlook shutdowns etc.
If you face any issue with your Outlook PST file, you can use Outlook Recovery Software.
