Copying e-mails

[bsettoon]

I am migrating to a new computer, both running Windows XP. I am trying to
copy my Inbox and sub-folders from Outlook 2002 to Outlook 2007.

I did is manually, but it looks like it put them in another Inbox which I
cannot open.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

With outlook closed you copy the pst file - by default named outlook.pst
Locate that in Documents fiolder of the new PC, then within Outlook open
that pst (File>Open>Data File)
Copy data from this pst to your default 2007 pst - if needed
