If you did the change store correctly, OE would have Moved old store
files so that you wouldn't have the file in the old location. How do I move my store folder? http://www.insideoe.com/faqs/how.htm#movestore In any case, assuming that you are using only one identity, do a File, Folder Compact All. Then check the dates on the DBX files at the old and new locations. The ones with the current date are the ones being used. If the other has dates as old or older than when you did the move, they can be deleted. -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "Janice F. Jorgensen" wrote in message ...

A few more things to check to be sure all your OE-related data are in the right place.

Thanks.
It's OK to delete D:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{FAC0681D-A00E-4D13-8A07-1D401A78FE7D}\Microsoft\Outlook Express\Janice Jorgensen =this folder. NB: The deleted folder should end up in the Recycle Bin. For safety's sake, don't empty the Recycle Bin (or at least don't delete this folder from it) until you're sure everything's OK. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) AumHa VSOP & Admin http://aumha.net DTS-L http://dts-l.org/ "Janice F.
