Default Can't Import Rules into Outlook 2003

Hello all, I hope my note finds you doing well. My computer at work was
recently upgraded from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2003. Everything came across
fine EXCEPT my Rules. I tried to import them, here is what I did step by step:
1. Tools Menu, Rules and Alerts
2. Options, then Import Rules
3. I was instantly brought to the file holding my rules. I clicked on the
Files of type and selected Outlook 2000 compatible Rules Wizard rules (*.rwz)
4. I clicked on the arrow next to file name which showed the path/location
of my rules file. I clicked on the file and the name appeared in the box. I
then clicked on Open.
5. I was immediately brought back to the Outlook Rules & Alerts Options box.
There were no messages or instructions, so I clicked OK. That box closed and
I was brought to the Rules & Alerts box. I clicked OK again and the entire
box closed.

I assumed that the old rules had been imported, but when I reopen Rules and
Alerts there is nothing there. What am I missing? How can I fix this? I look
forward to your replies.
Kind regards,
Cat
