I ran into the 2GB limit on .pst files (from Outlook 2000) and so upgraded to
Office 2003 where .pst files are NOT limited to 2GB.
However, Outlook 2003 will not open the old 2GB+ .pst file, and the "Inbox
Repair Tool" won't fix it ... probably because it's too big. I had run
PST2GB.exe on it, but the file it produced was seriously truncated, seemingly
removing the most recent data first.
QUESTION #1: Does running over 2GB in some way damage the file, or is it
that Outlook simply won't run it?
QUESTION #2: Is there some way of copying that old 2GB+ .pst file into the
newer format, larger .PST file that Outlook 2003 will accept?
QUESTION #3: Is there a way to repair the old 2GB+ .pst file so that Outlook
2003 will use it? I have several years of business emails, contacts, etc.,
which I really need and would hate to loose.
Any suggestions, solutions, etc., would be enormously appreciated.
