I was helping a friend move files from an old XP machine to a new XP
machine. He wanted to change from using Outlook Express to Outlook 2007. I
copied the OE data storage files from the old to the new PC, opened OE and
changed the storage to this temp location, then using info I found on the
internet went into Import and Export in Outlook 2007 and selected "Import
Internet Mail and Addresses", "Outlook Express", "Import Mail" which pulled
in his emails.
Then I selected Import and Export again as instructed, "Import Internet
Email Account Settings" but it said there wasn't any Internet mail.
Since his account wasn't set up I had to do that manually. I tested sending
and receiving mail then realized the Contacts were not there in Outlook. I
tried to run the import again but cancelled it when it looked as though it
was importing the same emails again so he would have had duplicates.
So then I went to OE and exported the address book into a WAB file, but
Outlook won't import that.
How can I bring his Contacts from OE to Outlook 2007?
