Windows XP, transferring Outlook Express 6.0 .dbx files

transferring Outlook Express 6.0 .dbx files

Author	Message
Donald Mille #1 / 4	transferring Outlook Express 6.0 .dbx files I downloaded my emails from a new (6 month old) Dell computer that has WXP. (with OutlookExpress 6.0) I installed them on a CD burner so I could transfer them to a new (3 week old) Gateway computer that has WXP also. (with OutlookExpress 6.0) They are .dbx files and I cannot upload them on the Gateway, because a prompt comes up saying they are "Write Protected" or something like that. Can someone explain to me in," layman's terms" how I might be able to do this. I used a CD-R disk, when I downloaded them. Any help would be deeply appreciated. DM
