Hi,

I will be reformatting my HD drive since and then reinstalling the OS, followed by the applications.

I am currently running WinXPPro and have Office 2003 and Outlook Express 6.

I need to backup my mails in both Outlook Express 6 and Office 2003 and burn them to a cd, so that I can retrive and load them back into the program them after the format and reinstallation.

Any suggestions on how to go about this?

Thanks
RJ

For Outlook Express, locate your dbx files, probably under Documents and Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook Express and copy those.

For Outlook, you can either do an export of your entire Outlook, selective folders, or just locate your pst file and copy that.

Simple. :)
