Office 2013 and PST files

Folks,
I have been using Office 2003 and 2007 since it came out. I am finding a few quirky things as of late
as the PST file grows in Outlook ( or as we call it Lookout!). SO, I am thinking of moving
to Office 2013 Business Edition ( NOT Office 365).
My question: has anyone here had good luck in moving 2003 PST Files to Outlook 2013? Are there
any special tricks or got-cha's I need to consider ?
There where issues moving this file to Outlook 2010 , so I did not even bother trying the 2010 version.

Any insights on this or direct personal experiences ?

thanks !

Thanks... yes, I have seen some of this info and it looks reasonable. I ~thought~ the way to do it
was not to drag the PST over, but to actually go into OUTlook and use the import command.
That is, I am assuming 2013 OUtlook has this function. I could be wrong.

So, maybe I take a chance and buy 2013 , and then begin the usual struggle.

thank you again for taking the time to address the question.
