Importing .dbx files into Outlook Express ?

Question

I had a hard drive failure. Luckily the files are backed up;but, the Outlook Express files are in dbx format and the only facility that Outlook Express has for importing files is from another mail program.
How can I get these files to the new Outlook Express. Copies of them are in a folder on my new hard drive. Please do not suggest cut and paste, because Outlook Express does not see them when this is done.

Answer 3

I dont have much experience with Outlook Express, but it may be the same as Outlook. Once the program is open, click on File. Then click on Import and Export. When the window pops up, click on the Import from another file or program and press Next. From there it will give you a few options, choose the Outlook Express version that you use and press next. From there on out, follow the instructions. If this is not in Outlook Express, then I am sorry I could not help.
