Copying files

[Mark]

I bought a new computer and need to copy my outlook
rolodex contacts from my old computer to my new. The two
computers are networked LAN. Old computer has XP PRO and
new has XP HOME.

I would also like to copy mu old emails from outlook
express to my new computer.

Help!?

Your old emails are stored as .dbx files, address book is .wab so just do a
search on your old computer for *.dbx and *.wab making sure to click the
search advanced options and check the boxes for system and hidden files. If
the computers are talking you can just share the folders you find your files
in on the old computer and in OE click File, Import, Messages and then
Address Book and point to the shared folders.
The other choice of course is just to copy the files on some removable media
and point to it on the new one.
