Yesterday I was working on backing up some of my co-
workers .pst files that had exceeded 600MB and I had a
couple that had exceeded 700MB and I was unable to burn
this archive to a single disk. What I had attempted at
doing was creating another .pst file and transferring
through outlook some of the folders to reduce the size of
the large one. When doing so the folders were moving over
but the large pst file remained the same size, while the
other one I had created was growing each time I added
something. So what I need to know is how can I go about
turning 1 large pst file into 2 smaller ones that fit onto
CD-ROM without running a file splitter program?

You need to manually compact the pst after moving folders to reduce the
size.
