Hello,
A friend's PC using Outlook 2003 has 2 .pst files - Outlook.pst and Outlook1.pst in Documents and Settings\his name\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook.. One is about 1/10 the size of the other and one starts with upper case letter O and the other with lower case letter o. I cannot remember which way round. Why are there 2 .pst files? Cheers, Geoff |

Are both constantly updated? Maybe one is his archive PST file where old
data gets moved during the AutoArchive process. If not maybe he created one by accident and it's just sitting there unused. "Geoff Cox" wrote in message ...

Often happens when a new version of Outlook is installed ot a new mail profile created. Ask Outlook which one is in use. FileData File Management. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
