Have Microsoft Outlook and it has quite a few emails I want to save before
formatting ( remove RC 2 ) and installing XP Home . Where is the
folder/files kept so that I can save these ? Or is there an easier way ?

btw: doing all this so I can install Vista in a few days time. So far I
have saved everything else that I wanted.
 
Did you know that the backup utility that is a free download for Outlook
2002 and later versions ( also works for Outlook 2007) so I bet I covered
your unamed version of Outlook:

Personal Folders Backup
www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&familyid=8B081F3A-B7D0-4B16-B8AF-5A6322F4FD01

In Vista the .psts and .osts are located here:

C:\Users\will_s\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst

whereas in XP it was in C:\Documents and Settings\will_s\Local
Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst

The PFB should do this easily for you.
