I know that .pst files have a size limit of 2gb, once the
file has reached this limit it may start to have problems
where you can't open the file in outllok or outlook will
hang if its in your folder view while opening outlook. I
have a user with a 1.2gb .pst file is having this same
problem. I have ran the scanpst.exe to check for any
corruption or damage to the file; the file is not
corrupted. I created a copy of this file to work with and
compress it. The file was compressed as showing 1.01gb on
the disk, but this still didn't help. I have found a
program that will truncate a .pst file to get it to a
manage able size; this only will run on .pst files of
atleast a 1.99gb size. Therefore this option in this
situation is no good for me. I have tried that program
before with a file that was larg enough that I could run
the program, but it still didn't work. Any ideas or any
known programs that will atleast let me open this .pst
file so I can breack it down inot smaller .pst files
