Upgrade PST file to latest and determine current version - how?

Hi,
A few related questions relatet to Outlook PST files.

1) How do I determine in Outlook 2003 which type of PST file (2003 or prior) a PST file is?
2) Is Outlook 2007 same PST version as 2003?
3) Can I upgrade Outlook 2002 to 2003 (or even 2007 if exists) without dragging to new PST - want to maintain the numerous rules that have been created.
4) What is the maximum file size for a 2003 PST file on Windows XP?

GReat - excellent succinct answers.

Further to that I walways thoguht they very max an outlook file in Vista coudl be is 4GB. Therefore a file can only be 4gb big or something.

Is there any facts in my statement here or I am getting mixed up with something else?
No, there is no Vista limit of 4 GB.  That is something else.  Fat32 data format has a transfer limit of 4 GB.  NTFS format has not such limit.
I did not actually mean to say Vista in the posting before. I meant Outlook - Vista on the brain!

But from what you have said it would appear that as long as the system is formatted to NTFS it should not have a filesize limit (evenon XP)

THanks
