Hi,
Before Upgrading to Vista, I followed instructions in Outlook Express
(French Windows XP on Hewlett Packard Pavillion) to export messages and
addresses. The messages loaded into Windows Mail (French Vista on Packard
Bell EasyNote ML 65) without any problem, but the addresses, saved as per
instructions in a .csv file, are not formatting properly: I get a message
telling me to "Associate the fields to at least one of these properties of
Contacts" (translated from the French), with behind it a window inviting me
to "Map the fields for importation". All very logical and expected, except
that there is only one field, with all the original fields (Name, Forename,
e-mail address....) as text within that one field in Vista, each XP field
separated by a comma and characters with French diacritics replaced with
boxes. Clicking on this one field of course has the effect of importing all
the XP fields converted into text into one Vista field, rendering the Vista
list of contacts unusable.
Any ideas anyone?
Many thanks,
Charles Watkins.
