Limit of entries reached?

Hi!

I've a problem with a public calendar which contains a lot of entries of the
type series (e.g. birthdays).
When a user tries to add an entry he gets a message that there is not enough
memory to fullfil his request. - When the user tries to delete an entry he
gets the same message.

I've created a new public folder type calendar and I've copied all entries
to it.

It works now. - But it will break in some time.

Is it possible that there is a limit which has been reached?

Many thanks for your help!

How many entries are in the folder and which version of exchange and outlook
do you use?
 
We're using Exchange 2003 and both Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003 cannot add /
delete entries.

How can I tell you how many items there are?

I only can tell you the the folder has a size of 1830KB. - Only text
entries. (I mean no attachments).

I see on each day up to eight entries. - Most of them are series (like
birthdays).

Is there a way to "tune" Exchange in the way that it allows more entries? -
Or do you have other ideas?

Thanks

in the status bar of the folder or in the folder size dialog, it should say
how many items.

Are you using both clients against the mailbox? You should avoid that if at
all possible - and make sure Outlook 2000 has the latest patches. There is a
known issue with the calendar with ol2000 and 2003 - a patch fixes it.

switch to the by category view and get the total for the folder. It wouldn't
surprise me if you are at the limit for items in a folder - it can be as low
as 16,000 depending on your *.pst file.

If I check it in the way you told me, he shows me 1070 itmes total.
The calendar is Public Folder. - What has this to do with the *.pst?

I think our server is powerfull enough to handle such folders. It's dual CPU
machine with 4 GB RAM. The old server was only a Pentium III and the amount
of users hasn't grown a lot. - The data they store has grown ...

What do you think?

What can be the problem?

Are you using a custom form? Try deleting the forms cache on his computer
and see if that fixes it.

Not really. - The problem is that the folder works now. - But it will fail in
some weeks.
