MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / March 2006pst files in Outlook 2003
Hi Just a quick question: does anyone know why my Outlook personal folders says Personal Folders (97-2000) when I right click, select properties, advanced? When I do the same on my archive folders it just says Personal Folders. Is there a difference?  SignatureMany thanks JD The 97-2002 format only allowed a PST to grow to 2GB while the new format (shown as simply "Personal Folders") allows the file to grow much larger. > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > When I do the same on my archive folders it just says Personal Folders.

It's not that odd, especially if you've upgraded versions on the same machine. What I did was create a new PST in the new format, drag/dropped my info to it then renamed the old one and made the new one use the old name. Seemed to work OK for me (your mileage may vary). > Right. Is it odd then that Office 2003 would have the older version of the > personal folders?

Isn't that a good way to risk corrupting your mail profile? SignatureBrian Tillman Hence the.... "your mileage may vary". > Isn't that a good way to risk corrupting your mail profile? |
