Hi Realt World,

If Outlook is installed on the same PC try importing the WAB contacts.

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...919601033.aspx

The Outlook Express contacts can be exported as a comma-separated values
(*.csv) file, or the OE contacts could be copied to a Windows folder
creating virtual card (vCard or *.vcf) files. Outlook supports both types of
files.

More Information

Hi Realt World,

Where are you looking -- is the CSV file blank when the addresses are
exported from OE, or from the Windows Address Book?

The CSV file can be opened in Notepad. Drag the file into a blank Notepad
window.

Can you copy one or more addresses to a Windows folder? These vCard (*.vcf)
files could be pasted into an Outlook contacts folder.

Hi Realt World,

Let's take this one step at a time. What steps are you taking when exporting
contacts from Outlook as a comma-separated values file? It should be along
these lines ...

1. File menu Import and Export
2. Export to a file
3. Comma Separated Values (Windows)
4. Select the Contacts folder
5. Save exported file as: Browse to a folder of choice and name the file
6. Finish

The file should be ready for use for importing into the Windows Address
Book. The contacts will first go the main contacts folder.

You may not need to work with vCard files, but to create a vCard file is
easy.

1. Select a contact
2. Right-click ... Copy
3. Go to a Windows folder created for the purpose
4. Right-click in the folder ... Paste

It is possible to work with multiple entries instead of just one.

Hi Realt World,

This has become an Outlook problem. You would be well served to go to an
Outlook group for assistance.

Hi,

Assuming you are exporting Outlook Express Address Book (choosing File, on
it's menu selecting Export, then on it's expanding menu, choosing Other
Address Book, then selecting "Text File (Comma Separated File)" what is the
exact error you receive when trying to Export?

Ken
