Default IMPORTING EMAILS INTO OUTLOOK EXPRESS 6

Was XP an upgrade from another OS?

Lost mail after upgrade to XP. (applies to SP2 upgrade also):

I have recently reinstalled Windows XP and would now like to import my old
emails into Outlook Express. I have located the .dbx files but when I use
FILE/IMPORT/MESSAGES/OUTLOOK EXPRESS 6/IMPORT MAIL FROM AN OE6
DIRECTORY/BROWSE

A message comes up saying:
No messages can be found in this folder or another application is running
that has the required files open. Please select another folder or try
closing applications that have files open.

Any ideas?
Thanks.
