How to copy the same Personal Folder structure in Outlook 2007

I want to copy the same structure folders that I have no without the data. I am not trying to make a backup but just want to the folders. I have so much folders for me to go in one by one to delete the data (emails). Is there a funtion that can be used to clear the data?

See:

Hi, justmiracle78.

If you'd like a more automated that eliminates all the manual steps in that article, then I can help. I can provide a script that will create a new PST file and copy the structure from an existing PST file into it. Please let me know if that's an acceptable solution and I'll post the code and instructions.

Hi steverice, I actually found that before posting this questions but when I attempted those steps it was pretty long processs and didn't work.

BlueDevilFan, if you can write a script for it, that's be great! Please let me know.
Thanks

Yes, I can script it. I'll get the script written and posted as soon as I can (hopefully within the next 24 hours).

Export the pst, archive all of the data out of it, import the pst....

I don't think it could be much simpler......
