Sidekick 95 to outlook

[Steve]

Using sidekick 95 and finaly want to update, however need
to export the contacts from sidekick into my outlook
contacts. It works fine into Outlook 2000 but not the xp
version. Any clues?

Or since I have got the contacts into 2000 how can I get
them onto my XP machine? ( tried to forward via email but
ran out of system res...

Thanks in advance

You didn't mention how you "actually" got them into Outlook '2K - (export
directly from SK'95 into O'2K or exported to a file which you then imported
in O'2K2 (XP)?). If it's the latter - should work the same in both versions
of Outlook.

To xfer to another machine - simple/safe way is to just create a new .PST
file. Copy the contacts to the new PST file on your 2000 machine. Open this
PST file on your XP machine and copy the contacts to whatever folder you're
using on that machine.

PS - If you're not familiar with PST files - it's under Files --> New -->
Outlook Data File (to create it) and Files --> Open on your XP system when
you've it copied over (if you do this via CD - make sure you copy the file
to your harddrive and reset the File attribute so it's not Read only).
