How can I import/recover dbx & mbx files & messages back into Outlook 2000. After a nasty virus, we had no choice but to reformat. Our dbx & mbx files are backed up, but Outlook does not offer an option to import those file extensions.

Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated and accurate, functional answers will be truly worshipped! ;)

Maybe I'm under the wrong impression but I thought that if a user asked a question here, it would be somewhat a 'given' that they had exhausted traditional means of finding an answer. Microsoft was the first place I looked and to no avail.
