Jim, you should be on the (Folder List Tree View) and the Inbox is highlighted for the Alt Enter keystroke to bring up the Inbox Properties dialog. If that still doesn't work for any reason, go to Menu Bar>Tools>Options>Maintenance and press the Store Folder button. The Store Folder is where all the DBX files are stored. Must say though that Barry's suggestion works a real treat and I didn't know about it before! Thanks, Barry, for teaching me something new! Hope you find your way to the store folder, Jim.

It just made a bell noise. It wasn't in the "in box messages", but i did a go to folder "ctrl plus i" and tried it from there, no luck doing it that way or in the message area itself, it just brings up the property sheet for the message the focus is on. Any idea where i'm going wrong?
