The instructions for importing Outlook Express files from another
machine assume that Outlook Express can be run on the target machine. I
don't believe there is a way to do that on a Windows 2007 machine. So
How do I accomplish this?

My question IS an Outlook (2007) question. I am setting up Outlook 2007
on a Windows 2007 machine and I need to import from Outlook Express on
an XP machine. Why is this not an appropriate question for this group?

Thanks to all for your help. I ended up using Windows Live Mail as an
intermediary and got the job done.
