Importing Address Book into OL isn't sharing.
Just do what you see on this page:

cf.

A lot depends on which version of OL you're using, too.

I would like to enable sharing of the OE6 Address Book with Outlook. I
would be grateful if you would confirm my understanding below and if you
agree with the method.
Initially I was going to import the current WAB file to Outlook.
Currently
I have a registry entry indicating where the current wab file is located
ie.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER SoftwareMicrosoftWABWAB4WAB File Name. Do I need
to delete this? I assume that once this is deleted, under HelpAbout, the
location of the file will not longer be there. Then I was going to add
the
registry setting to enable sharing of OE address book with Outlook, as
described in the following link and I refer to
http://www.insideoe.com/files/wab.htm#share. I was then hoping that if
I
use OE, and a new contact is added, then it would also appear in Outlook,
and vica versa.
Please can you confirm this is the correct method.
Thanks in advance.
