if you can get to your outlook. Click on Organize, click on the Rules Wizard, then from the dialog box shown you can import/export your rules. If you cannot get to your outlook.... check link for information on outlook file locations and extensions... hope its helpfull http://www.all-windows.com/backup.html -----Original Message----- From: John Colby [mailto:jcolby at colbyconsulting.com] Sent: Friday, May 02, 2003 9:57 AM To: AccessD at databaseadvisors.com Subject: [AccessD] OT: ^%$&^%(*&)(*&)%$&#$^%$@ Well, today my NTLDR wouldn't! Or wasn't, depending on who you talked to! I never did get it back, but after 4 hours of trying I had succeeded in getting a floppy to boot (I had a weird boot config as well) and then succeeded in getting Office apps to run windows setup every time they loaded, trashed IE and so forth and so on. So... I went down, bought a new 120mb hard disk, and started over. I did this of course so that I didn't overwrite anything (else) in the process of getting windows working again. Installed Win2kSP. Of course no network, video, sound and most critically drivers for the Promise100 IDE 3/4 where my old disks now reside. More hours searching for CDs and floppies for those things, searching the internet (on my other computer - thank GOD for "the other computer"). Of course I then spent several hours applying service packs, reloading O2K (only, so far), Norton utilities, NAV, and am still in the process of re-installing everything I can think of that I used to have. The weird thing is that I have my outlook.pst, but that apparently doesn't have the personalized settings in it for things like rules, signature, etc. Anyway, still loading stuff! WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA!WHAT A PITA! My question to you kind folks, where the (*&%)%$#!@ are rules / sig and the like kept for Outlook? It seems like you would just copy the entire jcolby user and be back with all that kind of stuff. The problem of course is that there is stuff in there for programs that don't exist (at least in the same place) etc. Sigh! John W.
