You must manually create this key but that won't solve your problem Although
you are running Outlook 2003 it appears you are still using an Outlook
97-2002 formatted pst-file which has a limit of 2GB and cannot be extended.
Create a new pst-file to have a limit of 20GB. If you cannot access your
pst-file anymore take a look here;

Some people say that the limit is 1Gbyte, and some say it is 2 Gbyte. Which is correct?
