You were correct with your answer to the OP in the alt.group. Importing and
Exporting will corrupt the files


I guess that's why I've done it that way multiple times, for a family
member who actually uses Outlook for God knows what reason, and has
changed computers multiple times, and it didn't "corrupt" anything.
And I guess you enjoy using a product that you claim "corrupts" files
for absolutely no good reason. Two for two on Microsoft Office
lameness.

FWIW, I've used the method described by Alias about 2-3 dozen times
over the past 10 years and recommend it. It makes no sense to me to
Export and Import when easier methods exist.
