Need your advice please.
How about the maximum size of PST file in outlook 97,
2000, 2002 and 2003?
Please send an advice back thanks
 
Outlook 2003 introduced a new Unicode .PST file format which has an
estimated limit of (at a minimum) 20GB, but theoretically can go much higher
than that. For all previous versions of Outlook, the .PST file size limit
is 2GB (practical limit 1.83GB). Don't get anywhere near that number or you
will start having trouble accessing your data -- if you reach the limit you
won't get in at all and will have to take drastic measures to recover any of
the data at all.

Official limit in any version prior to OL2003 is 2GB (most people seem to
begin experiencing problems closer to 1.2 - 1.5 GB)
OL2003 has a theoretical 33TB limit (applies to PST files created therein -
not ones you've 'upgraded')
 
Many many thanks Sir
Your the best.
