Hi,

Ok, yesterday my MB went and I had to rebuild my computer. I used the old
HD's and had to do a reload of XP Home. There were 5 of using the computer
and of course I was the only one with MyDocuments folder set to private so
the children could not get in. But when I reloaded the OS everything came
back ok but I can not get access to the folder. Is there a way that I can get
into this folder with out destroying the info in it. My mail everything over
2gb worth of info is in this folder.

Any help would be much appreicated.

Thanks very much.
Regards,
