Outlook Express vs. Outlook ?

[drivers00]

I've been using Outlook Express for years, but now I'm getting a new PC with Office XP and Outlook. Is there a way I can save all my Outlook Express folders, messages, addresses, identities, etc. when I switch to the new PC? Can I import all my Outlook Express files into Outlook?

You sure can. Just import everything from Outlook Express into Outlook.

Any suggestions on what directory I'll find the Outlook Express files I need to import? So far I found a folder Outlook Express which has 14 files including MSIMN.exe, wab.exe, and some DLL files, but they all have old dates. Someone told me I need to find .PST files- is that correct?
