Hi
There are two options. You can either change the folder where your messages
are stored - if you don't have any messages in the default folder that you want
to keep - or you could import the messages if you want to carry on using the
existing folder.
To change the folder in which messages are stored and therefore enable you to
read the messages contained in the .dbx files in My Documents:-
1. Go to the Tools menu and choose Options.
2. Choose the Maintenance tab.
3. Press Tab until you get to the Store Folder ... option and press Enter.
4. You will be told where your messages are currently stored.
5. Press Tab until you get to Chage ... and press Enter.
6. Select the folder where the messages are stored that you want to use in
Outlook Express and choose OK.
7. You will be told that your message store folder is about to be changed and
asked if you want to continue - or something like that. Choose Yes.
8. You will be told that your message store folder will not be changed until
you re-start Outlook Express. Choose OK.
9. Press Tab about five times until you reach OK, and press Enter.
10. Close Outlook Express and then re-start it. Your message store folder will
have been changed and you should be able to see the messages contained in the
.dbx files.

Could someone kindly advise me as to how I can move .dbx files from my
documents folder into outlook express.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
