Default NEW COMPUTER: how to move email addresses from OL 03 on XP box to OL 07 on new box?

Saturday Morn

NEW COMPUTER

I have a new comp running Vista Business. Office 2007 is installed.

I have a backup.pst from OL 03 from the XP computer ready to import.

I used the Office 03 "Save My Settings" wizzer on the XP computer.

But, it appears office 2007 does not have this wizzer.

And, of course, the OL 07 import wizzer assumes an existing installation.

So, How do I move the email accounts from OL 03 to OL 07?

You really don't want to transfer those settings between versions. Configure
your mail profile and link (don't import or overwrite anything) the pst-file
to Outlook by File- Open- Outlook Data File.

Thank you for your reply.

I do not understand. your instructions. How is this done between computers?

Are you suggesting to NOT import from the backup.pst file for messages,
rules, calendar info,...

Last time I did a transfer the Email accounts did not move with the pst
file.

I have 40 email address accounts in OL 2003, on the XP computer.

How do I get them from OL 03 to OL 07 on the Vista computer without entering
each manually?

40 accounts? I'm really curious why you need that many accounts :-S
What account types are these?

Your origonal Q was on how to move email addresses, presumably contacts? you
now state that they are accounts.
So what exactly are you trying to move??
Surely your not saying you have through
?
