Q: I have a new 120 gig HD installed in my wifes PC with a fresh install of Windows ME. I put the old drive as slave. Is there a way I can get her old Outlook Express folder to the new drive, so she has all her saved messages and addresses?
Thanks in Advance,
Paul

How about IE bookmarks? My old hd had them on Win98, and now I'm using 2k, do you know the way to import them in IE6. Thanks
On you're 98 box, start IE and then do File –> Import and Export… –> and then export your favorites. Take that file (or files) to your 2K box and do the same procedure, but this time Import them.

Re:Go to Tools>Options>Maintenance>click on store folder,this will tell you where your files are stored.
Search for DBX files on your old HD and then copy them to your store folder,restart OE & your files should be all there now.

Re:If I recall correctly, outlook express mailboxes have a .dbx extension. Just look for those on the old drive and put them in the appropriate places on the new drive. As for settings, I think you have to export them while OE is running on the old drive and import the settings files.
