I have bought a new pc and want to copy my address book from Outlook Express.
Is there an easier way to do this other than copying and pasting it into
Excel and then manually pasting back into Outlook on the new pc? Can the
address book be found as a file on it's own somewhere?

Thanks

Outlook & Outlook Express are two completely different apps

Why do that when Outlook can import the addresses directly from Outlook
Express? File>Import and Export>Import Internet Mail and Addresses.

Now why would he ask that in an Outlook newsgroup? Go back and read the
original question.
