Here are the instructions for transferring from a newer version of Outlook
Express. Check if they also work for your older version.

After you copy the files to a directory on your new computer, but before
you import them, make sure the copies are read-write instead of readonly.
If you also want to transfer your contacts list, bring along the .wab file
and
import it.

I want to add that because of problems the old 'puetr I'm using a flash
drive to to move files. Following to instuctions I moved the message from the
olf file directly on to the flash drive and from the flash in Windows mail.
It work fine.

Thank you,
