[mso] Re: Exporting Messages

True...it's gonna be a messy txt file. Greg is actually working on some code
to try to clear the binary/html junk outta there.

If he gets a script to work, we'll post it on the MouseTrax download page at
www.mousetrax.com/downloads.html and let you know here, too.

I've been following the thread with interest, but when I tried it, I didn't
get text messages.  I have a file with a TXT extension, but it still looks
to
be some kind of encoded file.  It has some text, but mostly it's binary
characters.

After you renamed to TXT files, did you open with Notepad?

I'm using Windows 2000 and Office 2000, if that makes any difference.
