outlook quick question

I just installed XP, and need my email address book from my other drive.

how do I import the old address book

 

On the old drive open the file menu in Outlook/Outlook Express and click on import/export. You will be given file types for import/export, you then select export to pst. Then you will be given a location to export at which time you select the drive of your choice. On the new drive just follow the instructions above but do an import...select the drive of your files and the wizard will import all settings and addresses, mail, etc. Hope this helps.....

 

i Can't run any programs on the old drive, i can only access the files.

 

If it's Outlook you can just copy the .pst file and replace the existing .pst file. If that doesn't work then you can open a new personal folder using the old .pst file.

With Outlook Express I think you can just import the old address book, a .wab file, I'm not real sure about that but I seem to remember doing that at one time on my daughters computer.

 

thnx, got um
