I had set up Outlook for automatic archieve.
When I finally came across the file, after not really
looking for it for years, I just touched the scroll bar
and the pages started racing by.Iclicked the file to close
it to stop it from running, I closed when it was already
at 835 pages and still flying by. Would anyone recommend
if I should delete the file or should I delete the content
only.

Thank you,
 
What method did you use to open the file?

You can't open a .PST file from Windows Explorer. It must be opened from
within Outlook. In Outlook, go to File | Open Special Folder | Personal
Folder, and then browse to the .PST file. It should open in your Folder
List. If the Folder List isn't showing, click View | Folder List to bring
it up.

See the following article for a "formal" description of this process:
