If I created a new data where would the contacts reside? I guess in old data
file

My friend has a 4.5 gig pst file
his categories in contacts are acting up, thinking maybe a new pst would
fix
this, or doing scanpst?

Hi John,

in Outlook under "File/New/Personal Folder (PST)" you can create a new PST
file.

I prefer to name this "Personal Folder 2008" or any other name as
"Personal Folders".

Then you must change the delievery folder to the new PST file.

Have a look on this site:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/291636/en-us

as special the part: "How to Point Outlook to Your New Personals Folder
File"

Maybe it helps.

my pst file is nearly 2 gigs
Can I create a new outlook data file and have new email go there, would I
setup a rule?

I tried archiving 2 gig pst, but it does not get any smaller


I have setup a new profile, but this is not ideal as I want to reply to
older messages
