Hi folks.
I know this has been answered but I have a slightly different problem.
The email spider I am using only gives me the option to save the address's
as semi-colon delimited, tab delimited, or line feed delimited. I'm sure
there is a way to pen it in Word and change it, but I'm at a loss.

Thanks

Brian

1. Export your current Address Book as a text (CSV) file: Address Book File
Export Other address book ...

Examine the file's formatting.

2. Open the semi-colon delimited file you want to import Format like the
one you exported in #1 above, then import it via File Import Other
address book.

I understand the first step.
The second step confuses me. How do I format that, in Word, to a CSV file?

Thanks

Ew boy. I'm over my head on this.
All I want to do is take the email address's I have off my daughters website
so I can make a list that I can send thank you's to.
I have Excel but have never really gotten into it. I have the email
address's as a text file, how do I import that into Excel?
Thanks again.

If you have a list of addresses only, then try this. Open a new HTML
message in Outlook Express and copy/paste the addresses into the text
portion of the new message. Click the Preview tab at the bottom so that
links are active and then right click each address and select "Add to
Address Book."

Hmmm.... I'm almost with ya. When you say, "open a new HTML message", do
you mean, create an email? I can paste the info I want on a new email but I
don't see a "preview" button down at the bottom. I'm guessing I have to
purposely create a HTML message. How do I do that?
Sorry.

And thanks for your help.

Click Create Mail button to open a new message, then click Format/(Rich
Text)HTML and at the bottom there should be some tabs (Edit/Source/Preview)
and if they do not appear, click on the menu in the Compose Message window,
View/All Headers and you should see the tabs.

Whoa. Almost have it. I can do that and add it to my address book but it
wants to put it in the wrong address book. How do I force it to a particular
one?
Thanks

No tabs no matter what I do. "click on the menu in the compose message
window"? I click view all headers, has a little arrow next to it but no
headers.
Hmmm........
Thanks
