As a followup to my previous post (4/29/02) on this subject: I had no trouble with my data files. I had problems with the program files, although some worked but did not set up the way I preferred. The freeware programs I just downloaded again, the shareware porgrams I downloaded again and used my previous registration codes (always save those). With the email files (on a CD), I followed Hugh V's advice ( http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q313055). That was a very good and much appreciated tip. I followed the KB article and adjusted the steps for my particulars, such as D drive ILO C drive. Saving my email files was BIG for me. This was a good learning experience and calmed my fears about WinXP being unduly troublesome. I HTH some of you. Your help was valuable to me.
