Hi Shannon,
Use the Windows search while you are not in Outlook Express.
Type the following in the edit fieldfor search for files and folders:
.dbx
press the search button, and wait for the results.
When the search is finished, and you are presented with a list, select all,
and then copy to the clipboard.
Now you can paste them wherever you like.
Keep in mind, that this is only a way to move all of the files at once.
If you want the individual .eml files from these, you will need another
program to extract them from the .dbx folders.
HTH,

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Transfering Outlook Express emails to
externalhard drive
Hey listers,
Looking for a quick way to transfer my Outlook Express files (.dbx) to my
external drive as .eml files. I know that I can do them one at a time but
because I have so many I am trying see if anyone knows of a faster and
more efficient way of accomplishing this task. I am using Windows XP and
Jaw 10. My computer is acting strange (when isn't it), so it's critical to
get these files to my external hard drive.
Any and comments would be greatly appreciated.
Shannon Burke
