Hi! I need to get the emails and address book out of Outlook Express 6 on
my old drive (running Windows ME) and onto my new drive (running Windows XP). I have tried exporting the address book to a .wab file and my emails to a \backup.pst and then burned them onto CD but I can't then import any of these into my new drive from the CD. Can someone please tell me what I should do as this is probably not the correct way to do it. When I ask Outlook Express 6 to export my emails, it puts them into MS Outlook or Exchange. I have 2 removeable drives - the old one is going to be cleaned up because of a few problems so I need to get the info on a CD somehow so I can import it to the new one. Thanks! |
