Jim,

You can do the same thing without having to rename any duplicate messages.

-Create a new TEMP folder on your desktop.
-Resize Outlook so you can see it AND the new TEMP folder.
-In your PCSOFT folder (in outlook) click 'edit / select all'
-Right click on the messages, then drag them to the TEST folder.*
-Choose 'Copy here' to save them all.
-Now you can cut/paste them anywhere.

* If you have a slower computer, it may take some time before you see 'Copy
here', and then about the same time again before they are all copied. Thanx
for your suggestion.
