Re: Outlook Express & .dbx files

Hi Loren,

Thank you very much for your response.  Here is the problem that I am having 
now.  I currently have all my folders in the OE program working correctly. 
In the personal store manager where the .dbx files are stored there are 
folders with almost duplicate names, for example, the folder named 
Stansberry and Associates in the OE program.  In the store .dbx files it is 
named Stansberry and Associates (1).dbx and the second .dbx file has the 
same name as the OE program folder.  The difference is left paran1right 
paran in the first .dbx file.  How do I tell which of the 2 .dbx files is 
the correct one?  I hope I haven't totally confused you.  Thanks much.
Mike

  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.

    Hi All,

    I just learned about Outlook Express and .dbx files.  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
