Default How to Move Email, Folders, Addresses to New Computer


"DL" address@invalid wrote in message
...
If you were using OL you should have been using Contacts, which is a

folder
within your pst.
The windows address book, wab, is I believe used by Outlook Express, a
completely different App.
I 'believe' you can simply copy the wab to your new PC, then within OL
import addresses.


I was using Outlook 2000 most recently, not Express. I do have a list of
"contacts" in that address book, if that's what you mean. I was able to
find my pst file and move it to the new computer and get my email folders
and emails up and running. But when I click address book now on the new
computer, I get the following message: the address list can not be
displayed. The contacts list associated with the address list could not be
opened; It may have been moved or deleted..."

Any idea what is wrong?

Thanks,

Jack
