Default Export messages from Windows Mail to Outlook

I'm struggling to export my messages from Windows Mail to Outlook 2003 (which
is installed and running on my computer).

When I export to Microsoft Exchange format, the outlook.pst file is created
in C:\User\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\. .., not under "roaming"
as described below. If I try to import this file into Outlook I get an error
message "The source and destination folders for this operation cannot be the
same".

I've tried exporting to Windows Mail format, but then I can't figure out how
to import this into Outlook.

Please help!!!

If you export to Windows Mail format, you have to tell it where to save (to
an empty folder).
