not able to compact one folder
Hello. I go off line, make sure I'm at the top of the tree view for OE, that
way I know no folder is being used and proceed to compact the folders but in the middle of the operation I get a dialogue that says "this folder is being used" Ok. I don't know which folder it was as I was away from my computer but how could this be if I'm off line and none of the folders are being shown? Thanks. |

Restart your computer and compact again. Then you get the prompt, grab the
blue banner at the top of it and move it out of the way. You fill be able to tell which folder it is stuck on. Let us know. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "marrie" wrote in message ...

not able to compact one folder
I can do 2 of those three things but I'm visually impaired and my screen
reader won't allow for items to be moved at least not by me and I don't always havea pair of eyes around. I'll try the first two steps and see if that problem goes away.
