importing or opening .dbx files

J

jay

some time ago, before installing xp on my computer, i
backed up all of my mail history from outlook express
onto a cd. i'm now trying to move the folders back into
outlook. the files all have a .dbx extension but i
haven't figured out how to get them into the appropriate
folders in outlook.

for instance, on the cd is the file: deleted items.dbx
and i would like to get it into deleted items folder in
outlook.

thanks for looking

I also want to know how to import and open .dbx files
because I am switching computers. Thanks in advance!
