Importing Contacts from Floppy or other source

[Guest]

I run Windows XP and use MS Outlook. I have been trying
to import Outlook contacts from a floppy disk (from
another computer) onto my Hard drive. In windows 98 I
could access Outlook in Windows explorer and drop and
drag from my floppy drive. In Windows XP I am not able to
find MS Outlook in the list of programs (it is not listed
under MS Office. Is there an other way import these
contacts, and where can I locate Outlook in Windows
Explorer?

State the format in which this Contacts data exists and your Outlook
version.
Dragging and dropping was never the right way to do this.

I'm running Outlook from XP also...I just went to my
Start button in the bottom left and clicked...and I found
Email Microsoft Outlook there. Does Outlook definately
come woth XP all the time or do you have to make sure you
order it?

I found once you get into outlook if you have Business
Manager you can "import" your files (mine is in excel)
for your contacts. You go to File/Import export/Business
Manager...then follow the prompt.
