Move pst file to new location

I keep all my important files in the My Documents folder and I regularly back
it up. Is it possible to relocate the Outlook pst file to this folder so it's
easier to back up? I didn't see an option in Outlook to change the path.

Close Outlook. Move your pst file to your desired location. Open
Outlook, and it will complain that it can't find the pst file. Just
navigate to where you put it.
