Hi, thanks for the reply. I don't think I made myself clear. Basically i
want to be able to reply to the messages that i have imported into Outlook
from Outlook Express without having to add the email addresses into my
contacts list. Normally in Outlook I can hit reply to a sender that is NOT
in my address book and their email address appears in the TO: line. I have
also imported the address book and so obviously can reply to those contacts
WITH email addresses stored no problem. I do not need to use Outlook
Express in the future.

Thanks

this or would I have to manually add an email address to each contact?

If Outlook Express worked before, importing its data into Outlook won't
affect its operation. If OE won't send replies, you need to ask in an
OE-oriented newsgroup like
