Hi all:

The motherboard on my WinXP computer turned toes up last week so I
went out and bought myself a new box with Windows Vista installed.
Then I installed the C: drive from the dead computer into my new box.
I'm trying to import the Outlook Express 6 information on the old C:
drive (now it's the J: drive in the new computer) and having no
success.

I can navigate to the .dbx files on the old computer's hard drive and
see them. But, when I try the File>Import route on Windows Vista Mail
I get the error "No messages can be found..."

Is what I'm trying to do possible?

If so, what's the problem? Something to do with permission,
ownership, etc., etc.?

TIA

Tom Young
