I just reinstall XP Pro from scratch and as planned lost my E Mail address
from Outlook Express and my favorites.Hopefully I copy these Info on a CD
Rom.
How can I transfer the list of my contacts and my favorites places to
Outlook Express and favorites.
TIA
 
Thanks for your answer and the site indicated but the problem is still
there and I don't arrive to copy this document in the OE Adress book.
Regards
 
Copy the info from the CD to the hard drive.
Change the attributes of the files to *not* Read-only.
Move or copy Favorites to %homepath%\favorites.
Type: favorites into Start | Run and click OK to see where that is.
OE uses the Windows Address Book, *.wab is typically located here..
%homepath%\Application Data\Microsoft\Address Book

Hope this helps. Let us know.

the right place in Outlool Express
