Moving Email & Folders from Outlook to Outlook Express

CONFUSED

Does anyone know of a utility that will move the mail and
folders from Outlook to Outlook Express. Seems to me that
Microsoft would have linked these two repositories of mail
to the same place. HELP!!!!!

Why would Microsoft have 2 separate programs then? One is free and does
mall and news - Outlook Express. The other is Personal Information Manager
and requires far more complex programming. Why would Microsoft make it
possible to open, say a calendar, in Outlook Express (which has no calendar)
that would invariably try to happen if they used the same file repository?

Use File->Import from Outlook Express and be sure to include all folders

the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal
account will be deleted without reading.

This old man thanks you a lot and if I had a million, I
would share it with you. You have solved a problem for me
and a lot of the other seniors in this area.
We were thinking that Email is Email and as long as you
have Outlook and Outlook Express, no matter where it is
brought up it should be in the same file, section, and or
repository (Box). We here are all having a "Senior
Moment" and our logic points to simple methodologies. When
we grow up we want to be just like you. Again, you are a
dream and thanks a bunch.
