I know what a screen reader does, Marrie. I don't know for sure if the
screen reader's the problem either but I think you should at least rule it
out. wink

See Bruce's reply...and I think you'll need the assistance of a
sighted person to assist you any further, Marrie, I'm sorry to say.

However, on the remote, off-chance that your screen reader software
is causing the problem, try disabling it before you run a manual
compact. --

This is a follow up thread as I'm haivn tproblems sending witht e
continuing
thread. Hear is what we did so far.
1. creat a new identity. i called it test for now.
2. do a compact all with no problems making sure I was off line
3. import about 5 folders and compact all.no problems
4. repeat step 2 until I had problems.
5. make sure that problem folder was deleted in the test identity
and made sure the deleted items folder was empty

The problem of not beeing able to perform a compact all in OE 6
still occures with a different folder beeing spoken (I use a screen
reader) every
time the message that a folder is in use by OE or a different
program, appears. I hope all of this info helps.
