I've recently had to have my computer worked on and have
chabged my email program from Outlook Express to
Outlook. But we can't find the addresses, emails, etc.
from the old program to load into the new program.
Anybody know where that stuff might be?

Thanks
 
You will need to Import your mail and addresses from Outlook Express to
Outlook.

In Outlook, click File/Import-Export/ then select "Import Internet Mail and
Addresses". Click next and follow the prompts. You may need to do the same
for "Import Internet Mail Account Settings" to setup the server name,
POP/SMTP names, etc.
 
In Outlook Express your address book is a *.wab file and is typically found
in Documents and Settings/username/Application Data/Microsoft/Address Book.
Your folders and messages are stored as *.dbx files and can usually be found
in Documents and Setting/username/Local Settings/Application
Data/Identities/some long ass number/Microsoft/Outlook Express. If they are
not there then do a search for them.
