Hey out there. Can someone tell me in Windows98 the
program that there is to fix a corrupted .pst file. I
know there is one either in Windows or from Microsoft out
there that will go through and fix any problems, but I
cannot find it any longer.

Also, is there a maximum size for .pst files. I have one
that is about 1.5gb and it is starting to cause problems
with Outlook.

Thanks!

Look for SCANPST.EXE

The absolue limit for OL 97 through 2002 is 1.83 Gb. SOme people have
reported problems when the PST exceeds about 1.25Gb.

Using the unicode format, the theoretical limit is about 32 terabytes. The
default limit for now is 20 gigs.
