Converting from Outlook Express to Outlook

[Guest]

Could you povide the Specific instructions for this conversion. I know there
is a window where you need to specify.
Note: My computer has BOTH OE and OL loaded but all the e-mails come to the
OE side.
I looked on the "Discussion" side and could find no specific instructions.
I think I'll know how to import the e-mail addresses into OL.
Thanking you in advance.

To move OE messages, use 'File|Export|Messages' from within OE. To move OE
address data, use 'File|Import and Export||Import Internet Mail and
Addresses' from within Outlook. Why use one program for addresses and the
other for messages? Because Outlook does a better job of moving address
data than does OE while OE does a better job of moving messages than does
Outlook. Your email account settings in OE can be imported from within
Outlook: 'File|Import and Export|Import Internet Mail Account Settings'.
