I have a .dbx file with messages form outlook. How Can I open this file in outlook express or outlook to view the messages
 
what is the name of the .dbx file?? is it inbox or outbox etc?? Just find the other .dbx files files on your PC, (do a search for them) and then take out the one that matches the other one you have by moving it to a diffent location...(this will cause you to not have access to the emails that were in that folder untill you move it back) then put in the new one....
Start Outlook Express and open the folder that contains the mail...copy the mail to a different folder, even a windows folder if you wish, and then replace the .dbx file that you previously had in there....
If you dont use express for mails, you can just copy the .dbx file into the location of your Store Folder as it is called. This can be found by going to Tools->Options and the Maintenance tab, then click on Store Folder....this will tell you where your .dbx files are kept... Jay~
