can you see the texts in the sony ericsson software? If so, can you highlight the text, ie click and drag across it, making it turn blue? If so, do that, then right-click and click copy, then open notepad, right-click and click paste

or right-click on the .sms file, select "open with" and choose notepad. It might just show up as garbage but you might be able to see the text and then save it as a .txt

However sometimes when you move texts etc using myphoneexplorer, the phone still gives you warnings about the text memory being full.

Floats moible agent is also a very good option.

used myphone explorer, there all on my harddrive. I dont have a clue how to A) get em readn in word, or b)convert the file format so itl read in word. ideas?

What do you want to save? Text? Contacts? Try selecting the stuff you want, then right click the mouse, there is an Export option with a number of different formats.

No your ot quite getting me, i have it saved onto my harddrive, i saved my messages, now i want to be able to read em without having a programme installed just for doing that. Like reading em using somthing like word etc.
