In your previous response
Properties of Persoanal Folders, in the General tab, click Advanced, look
what it says for Format
Anyhow if its a clean install of Outlook 2003 with a new data file +20gb
But you might find it prudent to use the archive options, I trust also you
are backing up the data files

oh, now I get it DL: yes I did install the Office 2003 software from a
full
program box, not an upgrade version... so would that mean that I'm working
unicode format and hence I should be safe up to 20GB? that would be nice!

Personal folders File, then its the new unicode format, if it states 98 -
2002 then its the old format, and you need to do something about it
pretty
quick

DL, thanks for your help!
- I hope I created it with Outlook 2003, but where can I find out if I
created it with OL2003 (I'm not sure anymore...)?
- and if I would have transfered data from OutlookXP -which I remember
having used earlier on- can I somehow go around earlier/lower size
limits
if
there are any?

Assuming you are using the Outlook default unicode format for the data
file
(ie a data file created with OL2003 and not from a previous version
upgrade)
then the size limitation is +20gb
You could use the archive options to reduce the size

I hope you can help me... here a couple of questions (Outlook 2003):
1) my Outlook is now quite large (the .pst is 2,180,433 KB) and I
store
all
my mails in it (in lots of folders and subfolders): is there a max.
size
and
beyond which it will stop working properly?
2) if yes:
a) could I split the the file into different accounts, so that I
could
have
one open for 'customers' another one for 'suppliers' and a third one
for
'personal'?
b) what else would be recommendable while taking into account that I
would
like to have the info (mails, some with attachments) always
available?
I'm using Outlook 2003 and Windows XP.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion!
