Go ahead and install e-backup then reload the file it created. David Ferrin ----- Original Message ----- From: "Margaret Thomas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <blind-computing@jaws-users.com> Sent: Sunday, August 26, 2007 12:32 AM Subject: [Blind-Computing] Recreating OE Message Rules with E-Backup?
Hi All, I'm trying to get things back the way they were before my tech had to wipe out my old XP Home hard drive and he installed a new hard drive and a "fresh" version of XP. I had been running OE 6 and IE 6. He was able to retain all my previous messages and the folders, but he installed IE 7 and I've had to re-do my Outlook Express settings. Unfortunately, my OE message rules and signatures will have to be recreated. I had E-Backup on the old hard drive and it backed up OE before the machine went to the shop to be fixed and I still have the file it created. I will have to reinstall E-Backup and the JAWS scripts. I had a licensed copy of E-Backup, which doesn't do me any good any more since the company is no longer supporting the program, but I THINK the version I had was slightly more recent than the one I found on the JAWS-users home page. If I reinstall it and the scripts, would it save me any work in recreating my message rules and signatures or would it just be easier to just create them again from scratch? I started from scratch using JAWS 7.0 since I was somewhat familiar with it and 7.1 did not work as well with OE. JAWS 8.x is installed now, but it is totally new to me as is IE 7 and I keep running into more surprises of things that have to be recreated and my patience is wearing thin.
