Default Copying .dbx files to CD for use on other machines

Wow! Thanks...I followed the "Importing single dbx files into OE"
instructions and it works. It's convoluted but I can live with that. Thanks
again.

Copy the file onto the CD. Then copy it off the CD onto the hard drive of
the other computer. Then clear the read only attribute of the file. Then
import it into the message store on the other computer. See
www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#imp

You might also compact the file (File | Folder | Compact) before copying
it.

Am I beating my head against a brick wall?

After downloading a large multipart newsgroup file I want to copy the
.dbx file to CD so I can combine and decode on another machine with OE.
When I tried this I receive the message ...".dbx is not a valid win32
application." The files in the download in the .dbx file are Yenc
encoded.

Any suggestions?

Dave
