So where are all the directories?

[Alan Gillott]

I dutifully move my WAB file each time I move to a new Computer. I am happy!

But

I tried to move my Father In law's address book and discovered he seems to
have the Active directory defined. I failed so went home to explore.

My Outook Express has a Directory of Contacts which are made up purely of
items associated with MSN Messenger. But I cannot for the life of me find
out where they are physically stored. Propertis doesn't help in any way
shape or form other than mutted darkly about inentities. it certainly isn't
my Email identities folder - I scoured that with Hexedit.

I then looked in Outlook. My father in law has pointers in outlook to LDAP
Directories including the Active directory. My Outlook refuses point blank
to let me see these LDAP directories so I can't test the hypothesis that the
MSN entries are in the Active Directory nor can test out thoeries of moving
my Father in Law's contacts by exporting and importing the Active Directory
(Complication: he lives 5000 miles away)

I kinda suspect that I should be able to see the LDAP directory list from
outlook but so far haven't been able to invent a way how.

Can anyone demistify me.

Thanks

I recommend posting to an Outlook newsgroup. Look at those under
microsoft.public.outlook.
