Outlook 2000 Contacts

[Dave P]

I just added a new master HDD and installed WinXP Home
full edition. Still using Office 2000. Is it possible
to somehow share my Contacts in Outlook 2000 with Outlook
Express 6, or maybe export them to OE6? Previously,
under WinME, I would almost swear that both programs used
the same file for Contact information. It would be
really useful if, when adding/changing/deleting contact
info, I only needed to do it in one program or the other.

You can share Outlook 2000's contact data with Outlook Express if you have
Outlook installed in Internet Mail Only mode. (Look at the second line of
Help | About to see if you do.) See
http://www.slipstick.com/contacts/oeshare.htm#imo for instructions. There
is a registry hack to do it if you run Outlook 2000 in Corporate/Workgroup
mode -- use at your own risk

Thanks, Jocelyn.

I also found two step-by-step procedures in the Knowledge
Base:
