You cannot do that Kathleen. However I am unable to tell you what to do. It is 
something which interests me but I think very complex to do. I think you have 
to archive the Outlook Express folders. They will then not be in a format which 
allows you to read individual e-mails. It is more for backing up purposes. 
However a long winded way forward may be to make folders in My Documents with 
the names you require and then save all the e-mails in those folders in My 
Documents and then you can copy and paste to your memory stick. However be 
aware that if you do this each e-mail will display in the folders in a similar 
way to your list of files and you will not have the layout in your folder like 
you currently have in Outlook Express where the e-mails are in date order and 
say who they are from.

Hi to all on the list.  I hope someone can help with the following problem. 
I am endeavouring to save files & folders from my computer on to a memory 
stick.  I have succeeded in copying and pasting files from "my documents" to 
a folder I have created on the memory stick, but am not having the same 
success with files from a number of folders I have saved in Outlook Express. 
I am selecting all the files in each folder but don't seem to be able to 
copy and paste them into the new folders on the memory stick.  Your help 
would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance,

Kathleen Doyle.
