sms messages, backup and transfer

Ok don't flame the new guy :) have been a member for a while but this is the first real problem i have come across. I have had an SPV E200 for a while now, and have rather a large collection of text messages in it. I have since been upgraded by the lovely orange to a C500, and want to have all the text messages on my old phone transferred to the new phone.

i have seen several articles on here about renaming and so forth the cemail.vol file and transferring it across to the pc and then back again, but i am having no luck whatsoever with doing this. activesync refuses to rename it, all explorer refuses to rename it and in general if i try to do anything, a "sharing violation" shows up with the file on the phone.

so, can anyone help me?simple step by step guide if anyone can spare the time, i have searched the site for something easy to no avail... there are some very precious messages there and though i get 3000 a month, i don't really want to have to use lots of them just to preserve my texts :lol:

gold stars to anyone who can help, if you are nice to me i will be nice in return :lol:

worked like a greased monkey, cheers :lol: the only problem is it truncated some of my longer messages... oh well, the majority of my 700+ messages are now safe in my new phone.... hurray :)
