Copying contacts from Vista Mail to OE
My wife's new desktop computer runs Vista and we're going to be going on a
trip and taking our laptop with us. On her old computer she used Outlook Express and she uses Outlook Express on the laptop. In the past whenever we've gone on a trip we've always just exported her contacts on her desktop computer and imported them to the laptop so she'd have the latest entries when we were on the road. Is there any trick to doing the same thing between Vista Mail and Outlook Express? TIA! -- Gary Visit Lucy & Gary and do the jigsaw puzzle at www.under-1-roof.com/PuzzlePage.html |

Re: Copying contacts from Vista Mail to OE
You can export Vista's Windows Contacts to a CSV (comma separated
values) file, which can then be imported into Outlook Express. Seems like you would get a lot of duplicates that way, though. -- Gary VanderMolen [MS-MVP WLM] "Gary" <gary@under-1-roof.com> wrote in message news:%233YydNnDIHA.1212@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > My wife's new desktop computer runs Vista and we're going to be going on a > trip and taking our laptop with us.
