Default Outlook on new vista machine - importing OE mails, etc. from an ol

OK, i have Outlook set up with 3 different accounts on a vista machine.

I had OE on an older machine with 3 identities. The problem is - OE is on
an old machine. MS Office Outlook is on a second, new, machine running Vista.
So, it doesn't have OE on it.

Outlook works fine.

I ran a backup of OE and imported the 3 folders with the .dbx files for each
identity.

I cannot get Outlook to recognize and import them. I also cannot get the
address book to import.

Any ideas?

You have to import the OE files into the new Vista incarnation of OE before
you can then Export to OL
