Am running MS Office 2000 on HP Pavilion laptop with
Windows Me. Occassionally when entering Outlook, I get a
message box that asks "Would you like to Archive now?" In
the past, when I click "Yes", all was well. Now, I click
Yes, but then get another message box that states "Unable
to archive one or more folders". I note that I have a
file titled Archive.pst which contains 22MB. How can I
clear my machine to archive data from Outlook...if indeed
I need to do so...?? Help, please. JWC
 
Hi,

If you select from the menu: Tools> Options> Other(tab)>
Auto Archive(button)... you'll be able to set your
deletion cycle there.

What is the size of your main .PST file?

Trish, Thanks for help. I gather that "archiving" is
synonomous (SP?)with "deleting outlook e-mail messages?

No -- archiving is moving messages from your default folders to another
location for storage purposes. AutoArchive automatically archives items in
your default folders at intervals you specify.
