Olushola,
The "Store Folder's location" is where it is in Windows on your hard drive.
In OE when you go to Tools \ Options \ Maintenance tab and click on the
"Store Folder..." button, a small window appears showing you the path to
where it is. You didn't mention your operating system so I will use Windows
98SE as an example.
In Windows 98SE the default location is C:\ Windows \ Application Data \
Identities \ {series of letters and numbers for your identity}\ Microsoft \
Outlook Express.
Now, open Windows Explorer (Start Menu \ Programs) and navigate there by
clicking the "+" by C:\ drive on the left side (expanding the folder).
Continue to expand each folder in the path until you get to the Outlook
Express folder. Click on it and you will find the .dbx folders listed in the
large window on the right side.
I hope this clarifies it for you...
Sven Swanson, Sr.

Thanks I will try this. One question: What do you mean by "go to the Store
Folder's location"?
