| Hi Colin,
|
| Thanks for your reply.
|
| Strange you couldn't import a csv file.
|
| For a test I attached a small csv file for you to try.
|
| It consist of onyx three names and they do import into my address book.
|
| Save attachment, test file.csv, to a location in My Documents.
|
| To import into your address book open Outlook Express, choose File |
Import
| | Other Address Book.
|
| In the Address Book Import Tool dialog window select Text File (Comma
| Separated Values), choose Import
|
| In the CSV Import dialog window Browse to and Open the saved attachment,
| test file.csv, choose Next, there should be a check mark display for First
| Name and Last Name, choose Finish.
|
| Import should have completed.
|
| Open Address Book to confirm.
|
| This should confirm if your Outlook Express can import a csv file.
|
| You can open test file.csv with Notebook to view how a csv file should
look.

| | Sadly, nothing has worked so far; I did manage to save the file as a
..csv
| | file, but my new Outlook Express still rtefuses to accept it as an
Import.
| |
| | Nor wil it accept a .pst Import, and my old Outlook Contacts won't save
us
| a
| | .wab file either!
| |
| | I can't believe Microsoft don't have a workround for this as thousands
| must
| | be similarly inconvenienced.
| |
| | Any suggestions?
