tranfer express folders to a different computer using OE

[Guest]

Hello,
I just bought Office for myself and my wife to use email on our new
computer. We previously used Outlook Express on our old computer. I have no
problem setting up Outlook to run and use it for email.

I don't know how to get my many Outlook Express email folders from my old
computer to Outlook on my new computer. The old computer is running XP w/SP2
and Outlook Xpress ver 6 w SP2. My new computer has the newest XP Media
Center and a brand new Microsolft Office installed by me.

I have a portable 200gig hard drive available if that would be useful in the
solution. Both computers are on my network as well.

I am obviously missing something.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know how to get my many Outlook Express email folders from my
old computer to Outlook on my new computer.

First, get them to Outlook Express on the new computer (see
http://www.insideoe.com/) and then export them from there to Outlook
(Tools>Export>Messages in OE).

Ok thanks..I'll give it a whirl

Oh, I don't know, floppy disk, CD, network connection, flash drive, whatever
medium you have that both machines can use.
