moving address book from OE6

[JCole]

I need to move the data in an address book created in
Outlook Express from one computer to another. Both are
running XP Home. The address book is saved as .wab file.

Can someone point me to a place where this is explained or
supply a workable method?

Thanks-
JC

This is a group to support Outlook from the Office group of programs.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and is a quite different
program despite its similar name..

You will probably get a faster and more expert answer if you post this to an
outlook express news group.

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x

A good website for information on OE is:

It saves it as a .wab and when you import into Outlook

express it will look for a .wab or a .csv type file. You
may have an option when you export the Address book to
save as a csv. They should both work.
