Importing messages from Windows Live Mail

I

Please someone help me! This is driving me insane.

I currently have Windows Live Mail (on Windows 7 RC), I have installed
Office 2003 and want to use Outlook 2003 as my mail client. I am having a LOT
of trouble getting my messages from Windows Live Mail into Outlook 2003
though!

I have exported from Windows Live Mail - but I am having trouble finding the
file. I am thinking it is storing it in
C:\Users\Alecia\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook as Outlook.pst - but when I
open this, it does nothing. (Other than make Outlook hang for a few minutes)

I have tried using the export tool in Outlook 2003, but it gives me an error
"The mail folder could not be opened. If another application is using this
file, please close it and try again."

I have checked nothing is using it, I have restarted etc, but nothing is
working! Does anyone have any ideas please? This is really really driving me
crazy!!!

Outlook has to be configured and *working* on the same PC as WLM before in
WLM you export to Exchange (outlook) - outlook has to be closed during the
export.
When you open Outlook your exported msgs will be in your inbox
