Default Outlook Express contact groups

I have a number of groups set up in OE, and I can't find a way to import
them into Outlook 2007. I can import my contacts, but in Outlook they
appear to be one flat file - all my groups are gone. Is there any way to
import OE group associations?

Thanks,
Dean

No. Outlook uses distribution lists which are different than groups in OE.
90% of the time groups in OE will not be converted to DL's in Outlook.

100% of the time, in my case.

Thanks for responding.

Yeah, mine too. Wonder why they gave the two programs such similar names
when they don't interact at all.
