Using Mail Store Home to archive / export PST file

I've read a number of posts regarding using Mail Store Home to enable the transfer of mail from a PST file to TB. I was under the impression that the archive within MSH could be run against a stand-alone PST file (that is, Outlook is not installed). When I select Archive Email as per instructions on other posts, and specify the location of the PST file and then run, I get an error: "This feature requires Microsoft Outlook XP/2003 or higher". Does it require Outlook to be installed, or am I doing something wrong? Also I am a bit unclear of the run sequence with MSH - do I run Archive Email followed by Export Email and what is the connection between the two? Refer to image attached. Thanks.

Okay, it seems I do need the Outlook client to be installed. Guess I will have to pay for a conversion tool.
