How to migrate address book from one computer to second computer?
The WAB~ is a backup file and not needed to be transferred.
See The Windows Address Book (WAB) http://www.insideoe.com/files/wab.htm The problem is likely that on the old PC, you had the contacts under the identity, rather than the shared contacts. On the new Pc you would have a new identity, even if it has the same identity name (e.g. Main). You can open the address book outside of OE and move the contacts to the shared contacts, then open the address book within OE and move them from the shared contacts to the current identity. -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "Jorge Cervantes" wrote in message ... I tried to copy two files of an address book from the old computer My name.wab My name.wab~ into Microsoft \ address book\ of new computer. When OE was opened, it showed the list of addresses but I could not see anything under Create Mail \To..... It is empty. Apparently, the newly copied wab did not work. Please tell me how to fix this problem. TIA. Jorge
