Hot to shift Outlook 2003 to new machine

[Scooter]

I've built a new box and want to start replicating my setop from my old
machine.

As I use Outlook 2003 heavily, how do I transfer everything messages, tasks,
rules etc from the old to the new machine???

Your advice would be appreciated

The Help Files have you covered. Only one error in them: do NOT copy you
previous PST file to the default directory. Copy them anywhere else you
want, but not there because you'll overwrite the PST file Outlook creates
for itself:
