dbx files in Outlook Express

[Guest]

I saved all my emails in a directory so I could use them in another computer. They are all .dbx files and I cannot locate where to install them in my new comuter so I can use them.

When I do a search for *.dbx files I get no results yet when I request info for one the computer points me to C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{3B3D1775-A978-4724-8AEF-8FCBDC9E7ED2}\Microsoft\Outlook Express\JimWins.dbx but my search engine never gets there. And when I go to windows explorer, documents and settings, owner, there is no local settings directory ???!!!! How do I go any further?

Your very welcome, glad you solved the problem.

Maid~Marian,

Thank you very much, the procedure solved my problem. I did have to rename

the directory "mail" and put it in my "My Documents" directory and use them
in Outlook
