Good point, Flor, but actually she only needs to download a demo copy of
outlook for the short time that the program is needed on the older machine.
Anyway, I think my proposed method is more complex than that of using
Windows Live Mail which is, I understand, the approach that Paul recommends.
I'm, happy to step back and leave it for now.
All the best,
Cearbhall

Maureen,
This is very helpful actually. The job is easier when both computers are 32
bit.
Do you know if you can install Outlook 2013 on the XP machine without having
to install the entire office suite? If so, then just install Outlook
otherwise try to install the office 2013 on the XP machine. You may find
this very slow given the fact that office 2013 is expecting a more powerful
PC than your old one. Once Outlook 2013 is in place on the old PC, you can
export the files from Outlook Express to outlook using the export function
in Outlook Express.
Here are the instructions that I think should help:
(Taken from:
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/config/move-oe-to-outlook-new-computer/)
When Outlook is installed and configured on the old computer, export from OE
to Outlook then move the *.pst file to the new computer.
Here are the steps required to create a profile and use the *.pst file on
the new computer.
To export your OE address book, open it and go to the File, Export menu.
Choose Other address book then Text File (Comma Separated Values).
Dragging the contacts to a folder will create a vcard for each address,
which we can get into Outlook. Outlook can't bulk import the contacts, but
you drag them into the Contacts folder then save and close the contacts to
add them to Outlook. Export OE Email to Outlook Unlike the address book,
exporting of your Outlook Express email is fully automated.
Open Outlook Express, empty deleted items then go to File, Export menu and
choose Messages. Select All folders or specific folders to export, holding
Ctrl as you click to select multiple folders. Click OK and you're done. The
export process will use the same folder structure in Outlook, creating
folders if they don't exist in the data file.
If you want to keep copies of newsgroup messages you can create a folder in
OE's Local Folders, drag the newsgroup messages to the folder(s) and export
the folders to Outlook.
Move the PST file to the new computer
To find your Outlook PST file, open Outlook and go to File, Data File
Management (Outlook 2007 and older). Select the Data File and click Open
folder. This opens Windows Explorer to the location of your pst file. Close
Outlook and wait a few minutes, then copy the pst file to the new computer.
Let me know at the numbers below if any of this is unclear or difficult.
All the best,
Cearbhall

Cearbhall, my Xp machine has Office 2003 which should have an Outlook
package but I must have taken it off stupidly at some stage and in trying to
be of help to another individual my 2003 CD got lost in the post. I do have
a CD of an older version of Office SR1 small business but I don't think it
has Outlook on it. I got Windows 10 and Outlook 2013 put on my Desk Top
machine which is a 32 bit.
Thanks Cearbhall for responding,
Maureen. ----- Original Message -----

Maureen,
It is not possible to do this directly if the new machine is 64 bit.
However, there are a couple of ways to do it depending on the operating
systems on the old and new machines. So, in order to answer you properly, it
would help to know what version of Windows is on the old machine and what
version of Office is on it. Then it would also help to know what version of
Windows is on the new machine and if it is 64 bit or 32bit.
All the best,
Cearbhall

Hi there! is it possible to migrate Outlook Express files to a new machine
with Outlook 2013? In theory it should be possible but in practice not so,
(at least easily) as Microsoft have blocked all downloads to XP. Any help
welcome and I thank you in advance for wrecking your brains.
Maureen.
