importing dbx files

[email drama]

The hardrive on my old computer died i managed to get it going long enough to
transfer files over onto the new one. the problem is i created a snap shot of
all my e-mail content from outlook express and installed it on to the new
machine using windows mail however they all came accross with a .dbx
extention and i cannot open them. i tried importing them in through windows
mail but it wont allow me to do it.
I have some critical info in these e-mails i need to access any help would
be apprecisted

When you say "it won't let me do it" what EXACTLY does that mean? What
EXACTLY happens when you try?
