I am trying to import my Outlook Express mail files into my new computer which was a made to order one with Outlook 2002 installed. Windows XP professional. I get the error message that the mail folder could not be opened. (I have backup .dbx files on my portable hard drive).If the problem is that Outlook is too old, how do I get a copy of Microsoft Express?

It's not too old. Do you have the folders.dbx file or just individual dnx files? (You need the folders.dbx folder and all the files in it).Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook]Outlook Tips http://www.outlook-tips.net/Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center http://www.slipstick.comSubscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook weekly newsletter orOutlook Daily Tips
