My folder properties shows-- Format: Personal Folders File so I
assume (dangerous I know) that this is the new format and the 2 GB
barrier is not a problem.

Yes that should be Unicode format (the new PST format). If you want to be
absolutely sure, copy the PST to another PC. Use Outlook 2002 or older to
open it. The PST fails to open if it's in Unicode format.

Thank you for the link. I am approaching the 2 GB range but do not
anticipate exceeding 20 GB.
