I actually did this on the weekend but I was on my internal 13" screen and the first couple of screens were all fairly old. Of 1318 files "MESSAGES.TBB", 19 are in C:\Users\AW\My Documents\The Bat!\*\Inbox\ (the new ones, all 4K except the main account at 19K). But the other 1299 are in C:\Users\AW\My Documents\Transit\The Bat!\... and have a variety of sizes and dates. On the weekend I thought "Transit" referred to a move from one version of The Bat! to another, but I just realized that "My Documents\Transit" is supposed to be documents on public transport (system maps, etc.). Is it possible that I dragged the folder "The Bat!" INTO "Transit", which is next to it? Would that have had this result? I suspect it would. If the above user error is in fact the cause, can I just delete the entire "My Documents\The Bat!" structure that's there (with only 3 emails), drag "My Documents\Transit\The Bat!" up a level, and re-launch The Bat! ? Or do I need to re-import or something? Thanks again! =aw ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.2.23 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
