I am running Office 2007 Beta2 and I cannot delete anything without
getting an error that says "The folder is full" There is no reference,
no error number-Nothing.

Can someone please tell me what this means and what I can do to
resolve it? I have already run the MS Office Diagnostics. It found a
corrupt setup file and fixed it.

Thanks

How big is your PST file (if it is a PST and not an OST)? Is this an
IMAP or Exchange account maybe (if yes, are you over your quota)?

Sizes are as follows:

Archive: 275,793KB
Outlook: 367,057KB

If that is too big, what can I do to save the data? How do I fix this?

They are definitely not too big. All my files are over 1 GB e.g.
Have you already created a new profile and added the files to it?
Have you tried the PST repair tool already (scanpst)? If you haven't,
make a full copy of any file you try it with as the B2 version of the
tool might end up destroying the pst instead of repairing it.

What's the largest number of items you have in a single folder?

Sent item are the biggest by far, followed by contacts. Right now I am
using Outlook express just so I can read my email.

Unread mail 13941
Inbox 167
Sent items 656
Archive sent items 9

This STINKS

Am I going to have to delete Outlook 2007 beta 2 just so I can take
care of my business??

656 is not a big number.

Unread Mail is a search folder so it actually contains no items. It's a compilation of items from multiple folders.

How many items are in your Deleted Items folder?

Patrick suggested last week that you should try creating a new mail profile with a new .pst file. Have you done that?

No. I will try that next. Deleted items are deleted after every
session.

I will try that and then report back.
