Importing DBX files into Outlook Express

[Inktec]

I am attempting to import outlook messages into outlook express v6, I follow the prompts under import mail messages, browse to the identities folder, pick the relevant identity, yet I keep getting this message "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 application that may have the files open." I have checked read only, the *.dbx files are on my HDD. Any ideas - Bots

Switch to Mozilla Thunderbird, it will import them easily & it's a much nicer email client.
