PST file - error

D

Daliah

I am using Outlook 2000 - corporate / workgroup
configuration.
I have a large PST file that I use to archive old emails.
The file is 2GB! I got an error message, and cannot
access or open the file. Error message is. "UNABLE TO
DISPLAY THE FOLDER. ERRORS HAVE BEEN DETECTED in xxx.PST
FILE. QUIT & USE INBOX REPAIR TOOL". I tried the inbox
repair tool, but again, an error occured before it
finised "phase 4 of 8".
I think the error is due to the file being so large..... I
just want to be able to access it to backup some of the
data to disk, and trim down some old files. Any
suggestions??

You already asked this twice before and were answered in the other threads.
