2007

Haven't tried burning to a CD, it is on an external hard drive. I suppose I
would have to burn it to a DVD?

I have run SCANPST.EXE and in the 2nd pass looking for lost data I get an
error message and it cannot complete.

What version of Outlook are you using? There is a limit on PST size of 2
GB
but that applies to Outlook 2002 and earlier. Later versions do not have
this particular size restriction.

Have you tried scanning the PST for errors with Outlook closed? If you
burned the PST to a CD, did you remove the read only attribute?

I recently had to re-build my laptop. Backed everythning up. Including my
3.3GB pst which was working fine.

After re-installing, I was confronted with errors when trying to use the
pst, and also when trying to import from it.

I always heard there was a size restriction, but never had a problem with
it.

If I knew in advance that I wouldn't be able to use it, I would have
broken
it out into multiple psts. But now I am stuck.

I have a monthly backup scheme and was able to import my March pst, but
lost
my April and May emails.

Is there any way to extract the last 2 months from my 3.3GB pst?

Thanks
