Cannot import data from outlook express into outlook. Help?!

[Seahorse]

My version of outlook only offers me the choice of importing from O.Express
4.x or 5. I have O.Express 6.0 and wonder if there is some patch that I need
to download in order to update my Outlook programme or am I fighting a losing
battle?

OL2003 allows for importing from OE 6.x. Not sure about OL2002.

Use Outlook Express' File > Export command to export your messages
from OE into Outlook. Using Outlook's Import command will change the
dates on your messages to the date that you transfer them.

Don't import from OE using Outlook. Export from OE to Outlook.
File>Export>Messages
