Hi Adrian, From Outlook's Help. George. Reduce the size of a .pst file If you delete items from a Personal Folders file (.pst) , the size of the file will not change unless you compact the file. The procedure to compact the data file might take several minutes. On the File menu, click Data File Management. Click the data file that you want to compact, and then click Settings. Click Compact Now. Note You do not have to exit Microsoft Office Outlook after you compact a .pst file. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Adrien Collins Sent: 25 July 2009 20:07 To: access uk; blind tech group; ITCH Group Subject: [access-uk] Shrinking pst files? Hi I have spent the afternoon clearing out my pst files in outlook 2003, I have got rid of a lot of old stuff but my pst file doesn't seem to have got any smaller. Is there a way of compressing the pst files? Can I have two or more pst files set up in outlook one as a kind of archive but not to be up dated and the one I work with? I believe there is a size limit on pst files.
