Move Outlook Express Messages to Outlook

[protechpc]

Any idea on how to copy to file messages in Outlook Express on one computer so you can install on another PC??

you can export to a .pst file but i warn you...depending on how many mesaages were talking about...the resulting file will be rather large...if the target machine is networked to the source this isn't a problem otherwise you will probably have to burn a cd

Also try looking for *.PAB files and importing these.

wait, are you trying to migrate from OE to Outlook? Or just backup your OE data?

If you're just doing to OE data, then you can backup the files in a location something like:

c:\windows\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{7E71BAEE-8D9C-48A8-AAD5-9C6AE99E88D0}\Microsoft\Outlook Express

Then when you create a new OE account, just move all the files from this location that you backed up into your new identity folder.
