Importing Address book into Outlook Express that has addresses stored in folders.

[Frank's Newsgroups]

I recently installed Windows XP. I want to import my Outlook Express Address
book. Under the old Win 98 system, I had many folders stored in Outlook
Express with addresses in them. When I imported the address book, Outlook
Express did not include the addresses in these folders.

How can I import the addresses stored in the folders?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Went to link and tried all things mentioned there. No results. Maybe you
can't import folder addresses in Outlook Express and they are lost forever.
Any further comments are welcomed.

hen you say "many FOLDERS" are these folders actually in the addressbook, or
under Local Folders in OE?

What I did was create folders in the outlook express address book, not
folders in OE, to assist in organizing the addresses. I believe they would
be stored in the address book.
