If it is a unicode .pst file, you would have no need of the .pst crop tool.

MS Office 2003 .pst files
Your PST file is oversized. Microsoft Outlook 2002 and earlier
versions limit the size of Personal Folders (PST) file to 2GB. Whenever the PST file reaches or exceeds that limit, you will not be able to open or load it any more, or you cannot add any new data to it. This is called oversized PST file problem. More detailed information can be found at http://www.datanumen.com/aor/problems/2gb-pst.htm You can use Advanced Outlook Repair to solve the problem, by either converting it into Outlook 2003 format ( http://www.datanumen.com/aor/problem...rt-2gb-pst.htm ), or splitting it into smaller pieces ( http://www.datanumen.com/aor/problems/split-2gb-pst.htm ) http://www.datanumen.com/aor/ contains the detailed information about Advanced Outlook Repair.

MS Office 2003 .pst files
9 GB size for an Outlook 2003 PST file is very large though not above the file size limitation can arise performance issue and this is problem faced by you. If the problem is not sorted out soon, it may make the PST file corrupted and thus its data inaccessible. You need nothing but a 'split PST' (http://www.splitpstfile.com) tool to sort the issue, it efficiently divides them into smaller sizes in a way that it can work independently. This not only solves the problem but also avoid corruption to a considerable extent. -- bipsa |
