Outlook Express Conversion Problem -- Contact Lists

[Guest]

I have been using Outlook Express 6 as my e-mail program, but I just
installed the Office XP 2003 update and nwould like to use Outlook as the
e-mail program. I was able to install my account without problem. However,
in Outlook Express my wife and I had different identities (different e-mail
addresses on the same email account with our ISP provider). When I imported
the saved address list from Outlook Express (which was associated with her
identity), the saved address list became associated with my account on
Outlook. However, now I can't move those addresses to be associated with her
Outlook account. All of the Microsoft on-line help information seems to
regard address sharing as something that can only be done using a Microsoft
Exchange Server, which I am not using (this is a POP3 email account). So, how
do I get the addresses to be associated with her account?

does she have her own outlook profile? if so, export the addresses from OE
when you have her profile open.

I can't get it to work. Here is what I have done:

1) I set up a Windows User Account for my wife, giving it administrator
privlileges.
2) Opened Outlook in her account, set it up as the default mail handler,
tested, and it tested outo k
3) In her Outlook account, selected Import and Export, selected import fro
Outlook Express 6.x, address lists only. When asked to selecte where to
import from, I have now tried every entry under c:\Documents and
Settings\<all user names - I have tried them all!>\Application Data\Microsoft
-- but I am getting nothing imported.

4) HELP!

does she have her own outlook profile? if so, export the addresses from OE
when you have her profile open.
