How do I recover saved email after I set up a user account?

I had to set up user accounts in order to share my computer with others. I
set up myself as the administrator. When my user account came up, I can't
find my saved emails in Outlook. How do I find my email? I was able to find
all my other programs and pictures, etc...but, I have no idea where to find
my saved email files.
They are not saved to Word or any other program...they are still in Outlook
in sub-directories that I set up.

Under what username were you working before adding accounts?

Assuming you were using an account named X, they'd be in C:\Documents and
Settings\X\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\something.PST,
where "something" may be "Outlook" or some other name. The folder is a
hidden folder so you'll have to enable hidden files and folders to see it.
