I used Outlook Express temporarily for 2/3 months, archived my mails (*.dbx files) and moved to outlook 2000, but cannot import the *.dbx files back in. Does anybody know if this is possible?

Thanks
 
This is a test of my memory, but I believe that my Outlook Express mails were transferred to Outlook...by Outlook Express.

I can not guarantee this, but try the following:

Restore your backup emails to Outlook Express. See fopr guidance.

When restored, in Outlook Express select

File
Export Messages

This should transfer the emails to Outlook.
(assuming Outlook is installed and configured)

Hope this gives you a few pointers...

Toonaway - worked a treat I now have my mails back!

Thanks for your help
 
Glad to be of assistance......a while back, I was always scratching my head when it came to moving backwards and forwards between Outlook mail clients.
