Look at the dates of the duplicate .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
