Try posting this in an Outlook Express news group - this is not one of them.
Outlook is a part of Microsoft Office and is what this group supports.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and has its own news groups.

You can also find some good Outlook Express information here:

First you'll need to copy all of your Outlook Express data to the new
computer and import it into Outlook Express there. If you need help with
that step, go to http://www.insideOE.com for complete instructions on backup
and restoration of OE data.

Once you have the OE files established on the new machine, use File | Export
in OE or File | Import and Export in Outlook to get the data into Outlook.
