Steve has already posted some good advice and after reading his links,
try
importing from the folders you created (when you have the appropriate
identity opened) and see if it works. If not, you'll need one of Steve's
utilities (such as DBXtract or DBXpress) to extract the messages from the
damaged folders. You can then just drag/drop them into the Preview Pane
of the appropriate folder to store them.

As always, when using Outlook Express, compact your message store
folder(s) routinely, at least weekly. Good luck.

Jim - it worked!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my -- : -)
Outlook opens again!!

What about those DBX folders/files? If one is corrupted is there a way
to find out which one and put the good files back?

reinstalling. But, it's your computer and your choice although I know
what
mine would be.

Jim,

Wouldn't it be easier to reinstall IE6 with OE6?

Basically it sounds like corruption of your stored messages. If you
only
use one identity in Outlook Express, there should be a single folder
containing all of your DBX files (which are marked as hidden in
Windows
XP).
What you need to do it either rename the folder containing those DBX
files,
or open the folder and "Move" vs. Copy those files to another folder
you
create for them. Outlook Express should then be able to open,
although
your
mail folders will be empty. Once it opens, you can try using the
menu,
File/Import/Messages, selecting OE6 and From a Message Store and
point to
either the renamed folder with the DBX files or the folder you
created
that
now contains them. If they do not all import correctly, then you
will
need
a 3rd party utility to recover them.

Post back with advice on success or lack thereof and we'll go from
there,
but please read the info at the link above first. Good luck.

Jim -- Thank you --

Here's the missing info: I use WinXP

I have 2 msoe.dll files:

\Program Files\Outlook Express with msoe.dll version

\Program Files\WINDOWS\Outlook Express with msoe.dll version
6.0.2600.0


Don't remember compacting files ever--
