I have microsoft office 2003.
Archive is over 6 GB.
Id doesn't work to move, becouse of its size.

What can i do ? (not split it)

Thank you!
 
Id?
Use a memory stick, if your not networked.
Or PKZip or similar which has the abbility to split a zip file over a number
of cd's
 
Thank you anyway, DL
ID= It
Sorry of my English
Well, i don't want to split it.
There are no other solutions ? To modify some parameters in Microsof Outlook
so that to see me the full archive even it's size is more over than 6 GB.

Thank you!
 
Splitting the archive with PKZip merely splits it for moving, or copying to
CD.
When you extract the files from cd, or PKZip, they will rebuild the origonal
data file.

The only other way would be to create a new archive or data file, within
Outlook, and copy/move data from your archive to this. You would then need
to compact the origonal archive file.

Is the memory stick not an option?
 
No, no. Maybe i did'nt make my safe clear.
The problem is not that i cannot move the archive.
I can move it; but the real problem is that the archive is over 2 GB (as i
understood, 2 gb is a limit imposed by Microsoft Outlook ) and my archive has
6 gb and for this reason, on other computer, it cannot be seen (i repet, this
is because of the archive's oversize).
A solution is to split it but i don't desire this.

What prevents you from moving it? If it's lack of disk space on the
destination, there's little you can do.

Outlook 2003 has no problems with PSTs up to 20GB. You could not have
created the 6GB PST if it wasn't able to be that large (it would have failed
at 2GB). You cannot use it with earlier versions of Outlook, but Outlook
2003/2007 will have no problems.
 
Outlook 2003 unicode data files have a size limitation of 20gb.

How exactly are you trying to move it, and where are you putting it on the
other PC
And how are you trying to "see it"
