I have a problem that has no doubt affected many before me.
My Boss has a W960 on which the wheel has collapsed into the handset.
But the problem is he has loads of important Text messages on the device.

I would like to know if it is possible to restore a Back Up of of one handset onto a different handset?

I can back the organizer data through outlook and the media stuff is no problem but the SMS stuff is a nightmare, Is there any SW available that I can use to export the SMS messages out and onto another device?


I have about 12 hours to sort this so any quick help gratefully recived

A big big thanks to Tranced and Masseur.
"My Phone Explorer" allowed me to print off all the SMS messages my CEO needed before his phone was sent back to Vodafone. I should also be able to restore all the info via the same program.

Why the heck didnt include this fine program with their phones instead of their PC Suite is beyond me!

So problem solved
