| 366158 | 2005-06-22 10:20:00 | Hello to you all I want to save email data folderwise, say for each costumer. Once a project is finished I like to burn all data(cad data, emails, images e.g.) on a CD and ad to the archive file. How can I do that best? I have tried to export and save as a csv. file but I find it a rather "unhandy" format and any attachments are not there either? Any ideas and suggestions. :rolleyes: Many thanks Gion |

| 366161 | 2005-06-22 12:07:00 | I only use the program to save all my OE folders and IE favourites. The freebie version is pretty basic and easy to run. It will over write when you do the restore. I imagine some juggling with foilder names would sort this out.. but its probably more trouble than its worth. I used to run MS word as my email editor ( on the list of things todo with this pc) mebbe some here can give you more info.. Using Word as email editor is going to give you the utmost control over managing client emails etc. I have always felt OE was a bit handicapped when it comes to file managment.. exporting being the only option I know of. I dont know if the new OPEN OFFICE program has email editing features, it does cooperate with MSword well though. |

| 366162 | 2005-06-22 14:03:00 | You could try DBXtract (www.pcworld.com) the free version. | Rob99 (151) | ||
| 366163 | 2005-06-23 09:15:00 | Thanks I have tried DBxtract-just quickly- but there seems to be no possibility for any attachments like PDF and so on to be viewed in a text editing program like word?! Has anyone als any suggestions?? Thanks Gion :blush: |

| 366164 | 2005-06-23 11:23:00 | Can the pdf open in acrobat reader?? | Rob99 (151) | ||
| 366165 | 2005-06-23 12:10:00 | What about saving as a folder?Each folder with clients name and burning when completed. Probably not to your taste,but that is what I would do. |

| 366166 | 2005-06-24 04:19:00 | Hello If I backup with dDBxtract to a new folder and open the a file it is in text only format so the PDF is unreadable, if I double click on the same file it shows the original file with the PDF , so I guess it shows the file that is still in the OE mail folder?? I guess I could save a folder in .dbx format on a CD and, say the case I want to check on one or the other email-letter send or received it is quite a way to go till I get something readable. And any attachments? Is that what I am trying to say understandable? Who has the solution? :( Regards Gion |

| 366167 | 2005-06-24 06:08:00 | You could create a folder in Windows Explorer or wherever and drag the emails from Outlook Express into that folder for archiving. Any attachments will have to be separately saved to the folder on your hard drive, however, as they do not migrate with the emails placed there. The emails saved in the folder will then be able to be double-clicked on to open with OE and the attachments opened with whatever program required, eg Acrobat for .pdf files. Is that the sort of thing you were wanting to know? |
