I disagree that the file size is inconsequential, but I'd be interested in
hearing what you think may have caused this anyway. The reason he exports to
a pst file is so he can take the file home and use it with his home system
without having to VPN in to access Outlook.

I have a customer who exported his calendar into a pst a few weeks

files were also around 55 Meg, but his latest one is only 29 Meg.
There doesn't appear to be any loss of data (apts) in his calendar
but we don't know why the file size dropped so dramatically. Does
anyone know the cause of this?

I can think of a couple of causes but the file size you see is if very
little consequence. Don't think twice about it.

The more important issue is why your customer believes exporting to a PST is
ever a wise thing to de. Try to discourage that action, since it loses
data.
