I'm now trying to get my contacts from Mail to OE's address book. I don't
have access to Vista, since I replaced it with XP.

Any ideas???
 
Both your old Vista, and your current XP store the contacts in a WAB file.
Open the OE address book, and use the File menu, Import feature to point at
the ?????.wab you were using in Vista.

You can create a new address book by going to start/run, and type:

WAB /NEW
 
Thanks Mark. That was part of the addresses.

There are some .contact files that were created under my username\contacts
that have all my most recent additions. Any idea how to harvest them???
 
No, I don't know what app, if any would do it. Perhaps some friend with
Vista could export this data as a 'comma separated variable' (*.CSV) file
and you could import it into your WAB
