Compact Archive Folder in Outlook 2000
How do I compact the Archive folder in Outlook 2000? I deleted a lot of
messages in it but the size has not changed. Using Advanced Personal Folders properties does not seem to compact the archive. Roger

Compact Archive Folder in Outlook 2000
Why don't you start using a new archive file? What is the current size
of the archive file? Try to keep your .pst files under 2 GB. Roger wrote: How do I compact the Archive folder in Outlook 2000? I deleted a lot of messages in it but the size has not changed. Using Advanced Personal Folders properties does not seem to compact the archive. Roger

Compact Archive Folder in Outlook 2000
The file is only 0.5G but it is on a very old machine so this is 1/4 of all
storage. Starting another file is a good idea but I still would like to know how to reduce the size of the current archive file. I know that I can delete a large fraction on the messages but don't know how to get the file to shrink if I do that. Roger wrote in message oups.com... Why don't you start using a new archive file?

The right-click its root, choose Properties, click Advanced, then click Compact Now. -- Brian Tillman

showing. Roger "Brian Tillman" wrote in message ... Roger x@y wrote: Starting another file is a good idea but I still would like to know how to reduce the size of the current archive file.
