But how can one change the pst file format. You know when we install outlook
2003
pst file format remains the same i.e personal folder file 97-2002 which
supprots only 2gb of data. Now if I want to work on higher version of pst
file which can grow as big as upto 20gb, I'll need to create a new pst file.
So one way to access old mail data is either to let them remain in the old
pst file or to import them in the new one. What do I do?

Can you tell me why importing & exporting is ill-advised.

It loses data and it's unnecessary. Export and import only when
transferring data between Outlook and some other application, not between
two instances of Outlook.
