Outlook Express 6 and messages in a file

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion (More info?)

I was reading your posts about news group messages and thought you might have
the answer.
My husband left me a DBX file with messages in it. I cannot seem to open
it, import it to Outlook Express 6 or anything else but perhaps curse it.
Any ideas on how I can get a look at these messages.

Where did your husband get the file? The associated Folder.dbx file from the
original location of your DBX needs to be present in the same folder in
order for Import to work. Folders.dbx is what the Import tool looks for,
first, to tell it all about other DBX files in the folder and provide you
with a list of possibilities. If you can get to that Folders.dbx, copy it to
the same folder where your target DBX is located.

This should work (I just successfully tested the idea, but you never know.)
-- Open Outlook Express (OE).
-- Right-click on Local Folders in the Folders pane and create a new folder.
Name it *exactly* the same as your DBX file, sans the .DBX extension.
-- Open your Inbox and right-click any message, then choose Copy to
Folder... and copy it to the new folder (there needs to be at least one
message in a folder before OE will create a file for it.)
-- Go to Tools->Options->Maintenance tab and click on Store Folder button.
Write down the current path to your DBX store folder.
-- Exit OE and then use Windows Explorer to get to the Store Folder path you
previously wrote down.
--Copy your DBX file to that folder and confirm the overwrite.
--Open OE. Voila!

Please let us know how it turned out.

Thanks PA but Gary gave me the perfect answer. I will look it up next time.
I was at the end of my rope but Gary managed to tie a knot it for me.

LOL! I figured those guys had already figured that one out. I'm kind of
surprised that my current cerebral processes provided the Aha! that led me
to the same solution. (Such Aha!s are happening less & less frequently these
days.)

It's essentially the same procedure, but I think mine's a bit more

Believe me, my brain needs all the exercise it can get these days!

Really, don't you think that my method of naming the new folder in OE using
the same name as the DBX file is more elegant than renaming the file, and
then later renaming the OE folder?

Huh? Huh? Honest, I need all the backpats I can get.

KELLY! Any news?
