I installed VADV on a WinXP machine and the message extraction feature worked
fine. I logged in the local node (0), read a message, then pressed "X" to
extract it. It asked where I wanted to extract it to. I typed in "C:\TEST.TXT"
and pressed enter. I then looked in c:\ and the file test.txt was there and it
contained the contents of the message along with the headers.

I also tried while logged in node 1 locally and it worked exactly the same.

Steve
