be in program files and then outlook but it is empty. Does anyone know what

You also need the *.dbx files. To transfer OE (or backup) you need to make sure you extract all the dbx files which are used to create the eml files (one eml file for each message in a dbx folder).

To learn how to backup, restore, create, etc. dbx and eml files see:
