Please help - Does new entourage have larger database size limit???

[Johnny Mac]

I'm currently using Entouraid by to rebuild my database as I had NO
IDEA of entourage x's 2GB limit. My question, since Splitter is not
working, is whether Entourage 2004 has a bigger Database size limit ie
greater than 2GB...

Welcome any info...

thanks,

John

Hi,
you should find this link useful:

Note that Entourage X's database is limited to *4GB* if you apply the latest
update (version 10.1.6) available on Mactopia:

Download and install the latest Office X update, which is 10.1.6. It's
available from Microsoft. It increases the maximum size of the database to
4GB. It also provides warnings as you near the limit.

The database size limit is discussed in detail on my page under the heading
"Compressing the Database".
