You can, for example, use PDF files. I use them myself, partly on a subject oriented basis, partly on a chronological one. Another way is, to leave them in TB! and use its own facilities to search and destroy ... sorry, that should be "rescue". too much news lately. Yet another scheme involves special software for indexing like PagisPro. You can achieve something similar with Word/Office if you export your messages from TB! to text files and import them into Word. With MS Office's own indexing utility you have a searchable base at hand. My advice: Stay clear of this method. The last one that comes to mind is the use of any database programme you already have, which must be able to hold relatively large amounts of data. And it should have the capability to programme your own applications, like dBase, Paradox or DB/2. -- Dierk Haasis http://www.Write4U.de http://Interest.Write4U.de/pongo PGP keys available: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=SendMyPGPkeys The Bat 1.54 Beta/50 on Windows 95 4.0 1212 C You can fool all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time, but never all the people all the time.
