Moving my inbox messages from Windows Mail to Windows Outlook

I would like to make Windows Outlook mail my defalt email program. I use
Vista and I already have Windows Outlook on my computer. I currently use
Windows Mail. I want to move my messages from windows mail to windows
Outlook along with the local folders if possible. How can I do this and how
do I make windows outlook my defalt email program so it will receive any new
email messages and my Windows Mail won't receive them? I would appreciate
any help offered. thanks
