Default Reinstalling Outlook 2003 inbox backup

Thought I'd followed all the instructions I found here for backing up my
inbox and contacts. I exported both files to a backup folder using the
"import/export" function under the "File" menu. Exported them both as "comma
separated files." When I restored my computer from a backup the contact file
imported easily. Unfortunately, I'm getting an error message when I try to
import my inbox file that says "A file error has occurred in the Comma
Separated Values (Windows) translator while initializing a translator to
build a field map. Outlook was unable to retrieve the data from the file
"C:\Documents and Settings\DOUG\Desktop\backup\inbox_backup.CSV". Verify that
you have the correct file, that you have permisiont to open it, and that is
is not open in another program." Any suggestions?????? Thanks in advance.
