Close, but no cigar. The .tbb file also contains copies of the message flags. Removing the .tbi file and then refocussing on the account will allow TB to sort things out, though, and reset the flags to a best guess. To see things otherwise, delete all the files from a message folder, then move the focus to another folder. Delete the .tbi file in that folder and then set the .tbb file to read-only. When you move the focus back to that folder you'll see a momentary flash as TB recreates the index file and finds the deleted messages Then the number goes back to zero when TB discovers it can't reset the flags in the .tbb file. Did I mention backing things up before attempting anything like this? -- -Mark Wieder Using The Bat! v1.63 Beta/7 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.00 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
