Default Number of contact entries Limit

What is the evidence that your Contacts Folder is full? You provided none.

Russ,
I have 1300 Contacts in Outlook 03 and it seems full based on the scroll
bar
on the bottom being very small. I have at least 1500 new Contacts that I
need to add to that includes mailing address, phone number, and email
addresses. You say that Outlook 03 can store 130 million contacts, how is
that possible if I seem to be at my limit with 1300? What can I do to
continue growing my database or is there a better program to use?

Thanks,
Mike

Depends on which PST file type you are actually using in Outlook 2003.
Outlook 97/2002 PST size limit is 2 GB. In terms of Item number limits:
16,000 items per folder when large table support is turned off (default
for
Outlook 97/2000)
65,000 items per folder when large table support is turned on (default
for
Outlook 2002)

16,000 folders per folder when large table support is turned off (default
for Outlook 97/2000)
65,000 folders per folder when large table support is turned on (default
for
Outlook 2002)

Outlook 2003 (Unicode) PST size limit is unknown, but practical
limitations
are said to be around 20GB. In terms of Item number limits that is also
unknown, but rumor has it at 130 million. My guess is that you will hit
performance limitations before finding the upper limit on items.

Is there a limit to the number of contacts (physical records) that you
can
store in a Contact list (folder) in Outlook 2003? I'm aware of file
size
limits, so to be clear, if each contact form is a record, is there a
limit
to
how many records one can store in a contact list?
Thanks!
