Since I loaded Spambayes (which does a great job) my backup to external hard drive gives me error message and back up of "locked range conflict". Can you shed some light or what to do so I can back up. This only happens on Outlook. I run win 2000 and Outlook 2000. Bill Lantz bill at lcagroup.com 760-655-4040 760-655-4011 Fax
