I don't know if this is what you want. But, if you open OE and all folders are not showing or opening up, do the following. Make a backup list of the DBX folders. These are the store ones in your computer, not in OE. With OE closed, go to the store list and delete the "folder.dbx". Now, open up OE and all folders will show up and a new folder.dbx will form in your store list. I hope this works.

I have folders in the .dbx files, such as, Websites and Tech Stuff.dbx, that arre in where the DBx files are located, but not in my folder list in OE. How do I get the folders working correctly back into the OE folder list? I am running XP/Office Home, Jaws 9& 10, and OE 6. All advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much. Mike
