oe6 data transfer
Hi group
I'm setting up my wife's new computer which is an xp media center. I exported her address book as a .wab file burned to a cd from her old 98 2nd edition computer, also using oe6. When I put the cd into the new computer and hit fileimportaddress book and select the file on the cd I get a message "an error occurred during the import process- the import process could not.....". I'm also facing an impossible task importing her old messages after having saved the .dbx files. thanks for the help. Regards, Mike
