MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / July 2008retrieving archived items in calendar
my office outlook is setup to auto-archive. usually if i need to reveiw a calendar appt from 3months past +, i can just click on the 'calendar in archive folders' to review any old items. i tried this today and at first this option was not even there. then thru the HELP function i followed the instructions on how to restore archived items. But after i followed these directions, i did not see any change in my outlook. then i went back to my calendar, and found the button to view calendar in archive folders. the only problem was that there were no old appointments in the archved folder. where did they go? how can i get them back? i figured out how to not auto-archive my calendar appts, but i need to find out how to put the old calendar appts back into my calendar. thanks  SignatureOHMMGT Do you have more than one archive PST file? Also, before the recent change did you previously change the archive settings to not save items? > my office outlook is setup to auto-archive. usually if i need to reveiw a > calendar appt from 3months past +, i can just click on the 'calendar in [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > thanks i just have one archive PST file that's about 1.8 GB, but also have a another PST file under my name, however this is only 525MB, then i have an outlook2 OST file. Not sure what that is, but it's 1.2GB. only yesterday did i change the calendar only to not archive anymore, but i haven't changed anything else. thanks SignatureOHMMGT > Do you have more than one archive PST file?

If Outlook 2002 or earlier, you have reached the limit for your archive.pst file size. If you are using Outlook 2003 or later, do you have your .pst file in the unicode or ansi format? Check File->Data File Management->Highlight your data file->Settings. If it says 97-2002 format, you have still reached your limit on the file size. See this page for instructions to regain access to the .pst file: http://www.slipstick.com/problems/repair2gbpst.asp SignatureMilly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.
