Hi,
I am running Outlook 2003 and just hit the 2 gig limit, which I thought I
could exceed with Outlook 2007. But I realized I had moved this file from an
older 2002 Outlook so it was created by 2002.
So I can create a new personal folder and copy/import all the files, but how
do I make Outlook see this as the default folder for the inbox etc.

Thanks
Ted
 
You can use the Mail Applet in the control Panel to add a new unicode data
file and set as default
Copy - drag & drop - from old to new pst, within OL
Compact old pst when done, leave open or close, as is your wish
 
Ok, just to confirm before I start this 2 gig transfer....

1) I do the drag and drop within outlook like I normally do to move folders
2) Can I copy the whole pst or one folder at a time?
3) The Outlook specific folders like floow-up, inbox, etc will also copy, or
are these created when I mark this PST as the place to receive mail?
4) I am runnign Vista - the option is to make the PST the mail recieving
folder, so ia m assume this is what I do?

Thanks
Ted
