"How many", Phil, will depend on the available space on your hard drive, so there is no defined limit. All you need to do is maintain good "housekeeping" with your OE files and don't accumulate more messages than your drive can handle. Again, there is good advice on INSIDEOE about compacting your OE folders, and in particular good advice about NOT using the auto compact feature: http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/files/maintain.htm#auto Lance -----Original Message----- From: Phil Stevens [mailto:joe2phil@drizzle.com] Sent: Thursday, 12 August 2004 12:36 To: Gen.

Lance....Help!!!! I just went to the site you provided, copied the directions re "store folder" and before I could decide if I wanted to do this, a dialog box came up and said that changes would take effect when I shut off and restarted my computer. Now I'm afraid to shut off my computer in case ALL my emails move. How can I either get back to my old default store method or transfer only the emails I want put in the new store??

Has anyone had experience with this program? This is genealogy related -- at least the way I use it. I use it to view CDs from France that contain copies of Baptisms, Burials, Marriages from the 1600's onwards. While these CDs come with a viewer created by the Departmental Archives in France, since having reformatted my hard disk I can't use it. Other users have recommended Irfanview (workable but...) or ACDSee 5.0 (version 6.0 will not work!). I now have ACDSee 5.0 but cannot print with it. I keep receiving an error message that I have found on Microsoft's website but they relate the error to Windows XP -- I use Windows 98 SE. Any thoughts? Thank you! Lucy
