^^Why not u create your personal Folder on outlokk express and save it on CD

after reinstlalation just give path of that folder and its done

Hi,

If u r runing outlook express & at the same time if u want to copy .dbx file then it is not possible. If u want 2 copy.dbx file then close outlook express then u will able 2 copy .dbx files.

He says he is not able to import not copy.
Try this....
make a copy of teh file in someother directory. Now try to import this file.
Even then if it dosen't happen, reboot, or use unlocker on teh dbx file.

I tried by copying the files to another directory and then importing my mails. This time it did not give an error message that the files are in use by another program, instead it goes ahead and doesnt copy any mail from the files.

Try this software -> *www.oehelp.com/DBXtract/Default.aspx

Then extract all the mails form it

Then drag and put them back to your inbox

Hope this help you
