PST/OST used to explode if it had more than 65535 items in a single folder. I dunno if that's still the case with the Outlook "Unicode format", but if it is, that would be a hard limit unless you can run in online mode all the time. (No offline or cached mode.) (Yes, I know that OUTLOOK.EXE is a different file from STORE.EXE. Outlook is still the native Exchange client, no matter what Microsoft's marketing department says.) (Yes, I also think that putting 64K items in a single folder should qualify as criminal insanity. :) ) -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
