Velvetfoot, I like this idea that I can have the documents duplicated with storing it in a secure server off-site scanned documents with the hard copy in my home office stored in my home for the first few years and then stored in the garage. I finally rented outside storage but there is no way I am going to bring the heavy big cabinets there so I bought stackable crates. I have been running my dehumidifier all day in the garage which is definitely going to give me a big electric bill. After my floor is replaced, I will see if maybe only three file cabinets will be stored in the garage out of 13.

Thanks ravencajun. I am bookmarking all these websites that allow large transfers. I used YouSendIt to send the exe file I was trying to send. So far, I have not heard from my friend as to whether the file was sent successfully or not. My provider will allow up to 10Meg emails......but they draw the line on any exe files....no matter how small. I will be trying these new ones....like YouSendIt or MailBigFile....to see if they allow exe files. I thank you for your response, raven. Larry

If you saved them as .pst files, click start/search, and search for all folders and files with .pst

Well everyone...good news..we got our shelf. To make a long story short, we spoke to customer service and inquired about making a claim and told them about our shelf situation. They too said there was nothing they could do because of the merchandise belonging to the liquidator. I guess someone there finally had a bit of compassion for our situation; after all, it's been going on for a year now. They called the store and told "Allison" to go ahead and release the shelf. Allison called to give us the good news and said but you must get it this morning before the liquidator comes in to take inventory, which we did. So now we are going to make a claim for the damaged unit and hopefully we will get some of the money that was promised to us back. Also we paid for a five year warranty but I guess that too is void. However the shelf completed the unit and was most important to us. The sad thing about all of this is the consumer is not protected at all with this sort of thing. And truly there is no way to know when a company might be going out of business. Although my suggestion to all is that if you ever have an ongoing problem like ours, you might want to go online and search about information on the company. After the fact, I did find an article online mentioning the possibility that Domain was going to file chapter 11. In fact when something gets delayed like our shelf did, you might assume that the manufacturer is holding up merchandise from the primary company because of non-payment. The very same thing happened to my sister-in-law recently with her wedding video. It was taking over a year to get and sure enough the company went bankrupt. The company used an outside source for their editing and the editor would not release any tapes because of money owed. So my point is you can always do research while the problem exists. And if something is taking longer than it should beware there could be a reason for it!
