Default Default location of .dbx folders/& can they vary?

I appreciate the great links on OE backup methods/apps yesterday from Bruce,
Eugene, Steve, and D. Guess and was wondering where the default location of
..dbx folders is and can it vary?

Thanks much,

Chad Harris

ToolsOptionsMaintenanceStore folder will reveal the location
of your Outlook Express files. Press the Tab key to highlight the folder
location, then Ctrl+C. Close OE, then StartRunCtrl+V will put the location
in the box - Click OK and you'll see the OE files. Otherwise, write the
location down and navigate to it in Windows Explorer.

In WindowsXP, 2K & 3K, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default
marked as hidden. To view these files in Explorer, you must enable
Show Hidden Files and Folders under StartControl PanelFolder
OptionsView.

How do I move my Message store?:
