I made my own personal message directory in outlook 07. Now I want to save
those messages outside of outlook but the program doesn't seem to allow it. I
want to access them with other programs. Anyideas?

The only application that can open email messages received using Outlook is
Outlook.
What are you trying to accomplish?
You could save email messages as .txt files or .html files however. You have
to open the email and then choose File > Save As, and change them from .msg
to another file extension.
