Here are the instructions for transferring from a newer version of Outlook
Express. Check if they also work for your older version.

After you copy the files to a directory on your new computer, but before
you import them, make sure the copies are read-write instead of readonly.
If you also want to transfer your contacts list, bring along the .wab file
and
import it.

help much, but the second one spelled it out step by step with PICTURES,

I want to add that because of problems the old 'puetr I'm using a flash
drive to to move files. Following to instuctions I moved the message from the
olf file directly on to the flash drive and from the flash in Windows mail.
It work fine.

Thank you,
Leni
