Hey guys - first time in these parts.....

Question: Am archiving some old emails out of Outlook (Express) and I followed the process which worked well EXCEPT it does not designate where the archived file goes to?? I want to Archive the backup to a jump drive but it is not cluing me into where the file is going.....

Any thoughts??

I appreciate your help!!

I appreciate your help!!Are you sure it's not Outlook instead of Outlook Express? The reason I ask is that Outlook will ask you to Archive unless you say not to.

At any rate, to find the store folder in Outlook Express, go to Tools, Options, Maintenance, Store Folder. That'll tell you where your files reside. You can highlight the entire string, copy to the clipboard, and paste it into the address bar of My Computer and jump right to it.

Hope that helps.
