Outlook Express, unlike Outlook is not easily programmable.

Folder.dbx
For a general page with info about the DBX file structure, you can review
the info here, which although not written by Microsoft, is fairly accurate and contains most of the publicly know info about them: http://oedbx.aroh.de/main.html If you just want to "read" the folder, you can open it with Notepad or Wordpad, although if you change a single byte, you will make the file unreadable/unusable in Outlook Express. And you maybe will begin to understand why so few people have any desire to work with it. -- Jim Pickering, MVP/Windows Mail applications Please reply ONLY to newsgroup.

than Arne's site is available. -- Jim "PA Bear" wrote in message ... Courtesy of MVP Jim Pickering: Outlook Express, unlike Outlook is not easily programmable.

They just changed the URL. The information is still there, but its not
going to help with the folders.dbx file structure. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms709546.aspx steve "Jim Pickering" jimp (AT) mvps.org wrote in message ...

Actually there are lots of inaccuracies there. Particularly with
folders.dbx. steve "Jim Pickering" jimp (AT) mvps.org wrote in message ...
