Don't confuse a folder with a DBX file.
Folders.dbx should just be considered an administrative file (ignore the name) but it must be included in the backup/import set for all to import correctly.
Thanks for the feedback & YW.

When I try to open a folder --- it is empty! Therefore I must Copy all needed folders and including Folders.dbx; I didn't put a check mark to remove Read Only attributes because it is already unchecked; and When I do Import from OE-6 I can see and select the needed Folders by holding down Ctrl key and shebang all is done. What a beautiful world we're living now if you can help a fellow OE-6 user. ;o) Rino "PA Bear" <PABear@mvps.org> wrote in message news:uZiJyI#rEHA.3428@TK2MSFTNGP11.phx.gbl... You must (1) Copy all DBX files, including Folders.dbx to your HDD and then (2) remove any Read Only attributes they might have before being able to (3) import the whole shebang into your new Identity. To import a single DBX file, see http://www.insideoe.com/faqs/how.htm#importdbx or the last paragraph on this page: http://www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx -- ~PA Bear "<< Rino >>" <noemail@aol.com> wrote in message news:%238pEVC%23rEHA.3140@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... Hi Pa Bear, Thanks for all the Info's but I still cannot do about it. Can you give me a simple answer maybe one step at a time. I already have a folder named friends.dbx and it is (not) Read Only. Tell me what should I do now? How I can make this 2nd OE-6 read friends.dbx? Rino "PA Bear" <PABear@mvps.org> wrote in message news:OnUyHh9rEHA.2000@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl...
