I am probably having a senior moment but I have 20 emails in outlook express i need to transfer/copy to a floppy disk but I don't see the option to do this.
If you can answer this do I need to open each email individually and copy to floppy or can I highlight them all in my inbox and copy/transfer them?
Idiots guide please.Thank you in advance

On my "old" version of OE 6 you select "file" then "export" then "messages".

Iv'e never done it but I would think you are asked where you want to save them to and you would select the drive your disk is in.

Try this way.... http://www.steve.maur...ials/saving_email.htm

The only options that come up doing as you suggest Dodger is to export to MS Outlook or MS Exchange. Thanks anyway.

I have identical email headings and this is a wee bit complicated for me as right clicking "A" drive doesn't give me a "create shortcut" option and the folders thing is way beyond my knowledge, Thanks anyway
