    I am running low on disk space on my C: drive but my D: drive is almost empty(both are 40 Gb). I would like to move my Office 2007 from C: to D:. What should the procedure be? it is vitally important I don't loose any of my emails that cover the past seven years and are all stored within Outlook. I am using Vista Home o/s

      Not really a question for these forums - but....

      Your best option is to move your complete My Documents folder and its contents to the 'empty' drive -
      Assuming you have Windows XP.....
      Open Windows Explorer. Click on the Up button until you see the 'My Documents ' folder
      right-click on the My Documents folder, and select Properties.
      You should be able to see the Target tab at the top - click on it, and it will show where the folder actually is.
      Click on the Move button on the location page - then direct it to the D: drive, and click on Make New Folder - call it Docs (or anything else you like)
      Click on OK
      answer Yes to the question whether you want to move all data, and wait for the file-copying/deletion to finish - it could take some time
       
      That way you move a LOT more than just your Office installation, which could get snippy about being moved anyhow.
       
      (MODS - feel free to move this thread to a more appropriate forum, as far as I'm concerned)

          Woops! my bad!- same principle applies, almost to the letter.....

          Click on Start - right-click on Documents, select Properties
          click on the Location tab
          click on Move - create  a new folder in the D drive (I suggest that you call it Documents to save confusion)
          click OK
          Accept the Yes to the prompt, and wait.
           
          HTH - and sorry for my earlier blunder!
