29958 2002-01-06 01:39:00 I have just installed WinXP with Outlook express6 ( I had WinMe prior to this).I saved my previous OE 5.5 data + folder with my address book/contact etc, on a back up CD.I have tried to import the files from my back up CD to OE6 but a message pops up saying that WinXP cannot open or import any files as there are no programs available or compatible with my OE5.5.Furthermore I cannot open any of these saved OE5.5 folders on XP.Please advise if there is a way out.Cheers Guest (0)

what files do you have backed up on the CD? Have you tried using the Import options within OE? If so have you tried copying the file to the harddrive and removing the read only attribute from the file before importing?
