Outlook Express Error 0x800c0131

[Guest]

Hi
When entering into Outlook Express I am getting this error messag
"Outlook Express Error 0x800c0131

I did the steps below
Click Start then Find then click Files or Folders.
In the Named box, type folders.dbx.
In the Look In box, click your main hard disk (this is usually drive C), and then click Find Now.
Right-click the Folders.dbx file, and then click Rename.
Type folders.old, and click OK.
Start Outlook Express again. This creates a new Folders.dbx file automatically.

But then I lost all of my Inbox messages. So I returned the old Folders.dbx file.
Is there a way to do this without loosing any messages
Also I am getting problems with Directdb.dll

Thanks

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003 from the Office suite of products. Outlook
Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're

to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to
your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that
version number. Good luck!
