Missing sendlist when exporting

[Jan Bladh]

Hi,
I need to move the outlook.pst file to an other computer.
I have Win-98SE and Outlook-98.
In Outlook I have above contacts several maps with contacts. In each
of theese I have different sendlists. I can´t see them in Outlooks
contacts itself. Now I am instead inside the Address Book. In this
version Address book may bee based on whats in the outlook.pst file.
Ít is obviously not enough with coying or exporting the pst file to
the second computer.

For Outlook all looks good, but without any sendlists.
For the Address book I only have the general map contacts. All the
subgroups is not there. The same with the sendlists.

I have seen several issues about Outlook and outlook express and the
problem with the Addressbook. Unfortunately I have not discovered any
solution for this matter. I hope for a simple explanation on a second
file I haven´t yet found.

For the Outlook express the file "myname".wab is not used, since I
coordinate the Addressbook with Outlook.
Thanks

There is no separate address book file in Outlook, nor has Outlook ever used
a WAB. . All data resides in the Contact folder and the Outlook Address Book
has always been based on the data that reside in the PST file. Please
describe what you mean by "sendlists." Outlook has no such thing. It does
permit the use of Distribution Lists, but not until Outlook 2000.
Outlook 98 existed as two completely different programs. Look at line 2 of
Help | About to see which you are using: Internet Mail Only or
Corp/Workgroup. If you are using the former, then you were actually using
Outlook Express' address book engine and any groups you created there cannot
be transferred.
