important and not the cause/reason why OE5 cannot handle the file.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>A way to restore your messages:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>1. -copy you dbx-file to a temp folder, eg
C:\Temp\OE5\</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>3. -follow the procedure that is mentioned,
whilst:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT

-Program to Import from : Outlook Express 5</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT
size=2> 3b.
-Folder to Import from : C:\Temp\OE5\</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT
size=2>
(or whatever temp-folder you have used in
step-1)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Should the program return an error-message in a
-non-recoqnising-way- , eg like "this folder does not contain</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>any messages", then more force should be used, eg:
rebuild your Inbox.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Rebuilding the Inbox:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-close OE5</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-open Win9x-Explorer </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-for backup move your current Inbox file "Inbox.dbx" to a
temp folder</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> eg this
is </FONT><FONT size=2>usualy found at</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>
C:\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook Express\Inbox.dbx</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> and
move to the folder</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>
C:\Temp\BckUp\Inbox.dbx</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>-<FONT size=2>for the rebuild move your "corrupted" dbx file to the OE
internal folders-folder</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT
size=2>
C:\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
Express\corrupted.dbx</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> and rename
this "corrupted.dbx" to "Inbox.dbx"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-minimize Win9x-Explorer to TaskBar</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-open OE5</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-your Inbox folder should now show the mails </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Since the original Inbox.dbx is not present, OE5 should now
use the renamed Inbox.dbx file for Inbox folder, but</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>only if it </FONT><FONT size=2>can recoqnise the file and
its format as an email folder/format. Otherwise it will overwrite the file
with</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>a new Inbox (dbx-folder). </FONT><FONT size=2>If it cannot
recoqnise the file, than it is also </FONT><FONT size=2>not in the correct mail
folder-format.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Now :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-if yes, eg you are at luck, then in OE5 copy your 'lost
mails' over to any other folder, eg</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> any -other than the Inbox-
folder</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-and restore the changes </FONT><FONT size=2>made
in the previously </FONT><FONT size=2>made steps.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-if no, t</FONT><FONT size=2>hen the last resort left for
you is to:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> - at
least restore the previously made steps</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT
size=2> - now just
make a copy of </FONT><FONT size=2>your "corrupted.dbx" file</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> - open this
file in NotePad and save the messages' headers+contents to separate text files,
eg</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>
thus including the full headers</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> - with
using the text files, give the files the .eml for extension when saving as to
disk</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>
(.eml is the registered file type for OE5 files/mails)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> -
double-click each file to have OE5 to open up with these text files, as mails in
the program, eg as 'mail messages'</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>
{precission work is demanded here, especialy for the complete header information
and full message, eg not to</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT
size=2> include
(too) many blanc </FONT><FONT size=2>lines at the bottom of a
message}</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Any files or attachments that were included in the originals
will (most of the time) be lost, but </FONT><FONT size=2>the
mails(messages)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>themselves can then at least be 'saved'</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>(and a spare copy is also available should you find any other
ways to recover </FONT><FONT size=2>it).</FONT></DIV>

File</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>All,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is very much off topic, but I can use any
help I can get. I copied a group of Outlook Express 5 messages to
another folder that was created at the same time by OE5 since it didn't
exist. In the process, the dates got corrupted. Following are the
dates on the file:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- Created: Saturday, November 13,
1999 11:08:49 PM</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- Modified: Saturday, November 13, 1999
10:36:16 PM</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You will note that the modified date precedes the
created date. This anomaly is apparently causing OE5 not to list
this new folder in the Folder List, and I'm unable to access the messages in
that folder.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The file is visible using Windows Explorer.
When I double-click on it, it asks for the program to use to access it, but
doesn't list OE5. The suffix is DBX.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this
problem; e.g., a utility to change date or program to read and update file to
automatically change Modified Date, etc.?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks.</FONT></DIV>

Bill, you can download it off the metastock web site for free or they will
send you a CD with the upgrade on it for a nominal charge ( I think it's
around $10.00) if you call them.
All the best,
Joe Nemecek
