I'm trying to move a file of e-mails onto a c.d. so I can save them. How do
I move them to a c.d. or at least move them to my documents?

create a file folderand then click and drag the mails from the outlook folder
into the file folder
then burn the folder on cd

In Tools-> Options you'll find Maintenance options to set your Store Folder.
You can move your dbx-files to a location of your choice.

Note that this is an Microsoft Office Outlook forum.

Outlook Express is family of Internet Explorer and Outlook of the Office
family.

Good Luck!

If it's really Outlook Express, you go to where the OE experts are:

http://www.microsoft.com/communities...xpress.general

(or just use OE connected to msnews.microsoft.com and go to
microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general)

f.h.

While that may work it is not optimal. Backing up the dbx-files from OE is a
more optimal approach.

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, I'm unsuccessful. Do you mind walking
me through step-by-step for someone who is not savvy with OE?

Thanks again.
