Your files and folders are in the database file which is usually kept in your documents folder. The folders and files with numbers are used by DevonThink while it works on your database. The database file are where your files and notes, and folders are kept. I know this because I have moved devonthink databases to different machines and had no loss of data. On second look, I think you managed to open the devonthink database. The devonthink database may contain files and folder that are used by devonthink for your information. The logical structure of your files are represented by the folders and files you see in the devonthink screen. Just like the wizard of oz "Don't look behind the curtain." If you pull the folder out of devonthink and onto the desktop you will have a folder structure with words.

As of now, I am not leaning towards one or the other. But with DevonThink (Beta of Version 2) I have a normal folder in Library/Application Support/ that I can navigate. On the other hand, I don't like the file structure of this folder (numbers as folder names) Can you please clarify? Thank you Valerio Dear Clay,
