You're welcome. Also, just in case you weren't aware, you can name the personal folder anything you like - I set up multiple personal folders and then subcategorize them into smaller separate folders such as:

Work.pst
   Insurance Guidelines
   Internal Policies and Procedures
Programming.pst
   VFP
   DotNet
   Standards
Personal.pst
   Personal Mail

etc.

>>>>I don't know of any limit to the number of folders. I am assuming you are referring to folders in your personal folders (.pst) file (which was limited to file size) and not the mailbox .pst file itself (which is limited by the administrator)? If so, there was a limit to the file size of 1.82GB but that was fixed in a hotfix for Outlook 2002.

>>>>>I am creating a lot of folders in my Outlook 2002 (in order to organize messages by project). I have already created about 50 folders. I don't want to find out the limit by blowing up the entire Outlook database one day. Does anybody know what it the approximate max limit?
