Rules in Outlook can be imported and exported which means you can move your rules between computers and e-mail programs. When you export a set of rules, you save them to a file with a .rwz extension.
To export rules in Outlook 2007:
- Open Outlook 2007.
- From the Tools menu, click Rules and Alerts.
- If you have more than one e-mail account, in the Apply changes to this folder list, select the Inbox that you want.
- Click Options.
- Click Export Rules.
- In the File name box, type the path and file name for the set of rules that you want to export.
- If you want to export a file that contains only rules that are compatible with a previous version of Microsoft Office Outlook, in the Save as type list, select one of the following:
- Outlook 2002 Compatible Rules Wizard rules
- Outlook 2000 Compatible Rules Wizard rules
- Outlook 98 Compatible Rules Wizard rules
- Click Save.

Hi Diana,
I frequently save documents. When the ‘Save As’ window pops up it has a list of ‘Save In’ locations on the left. Can that list be changed so that the file that I save the majority of my documents to is shown? This would prevent me from having to go through several steps to get to the right file location.
Thanks,
Leo
