I've had files that 80 gb, but 
this says you can go up 
to 2tb.

  Subject: Windows server max file 
  size
  
  Hi All
   
  We have a process that is trying to create a huge 
  flat file for a marketing export on a windows 2000 server host, and the file 
  size seems to be constraining us. If I put a constraint (where clause) on the 
  result set, it generates fine, but without it, I think I am exceeding some 
  maximum file size. This is NTFS5, and the only thing I have found on the 
  Microsquish web site knowledge base (after 2 hours of digging) is that the 
  NFTS volumes are created with a default cluster size of 4096 bytes. I am 
  not sure if this places a limit on the maximum file size and what other 
  repercussions there are to this.
   
  Am I an the right track ? Anyone care to 
  enlighten me to the wondrous (sic) workings of Microsquish Windows 2000 server 
  ?
   
  Thanks.
