synchronize birthdays from the outlook 2000 address book to the ca

[Guest]

Hi! I use outlook 2000 and use the address book to input all my contact
emails. Now I am also using the birthday feature. I am interested to
synchronize the outlook calendar with the address book so as to recieve
birthday reminders.

You can't. It works the other way around. From Contacts to Calendar not from
Calendar to Contacts

The Address Book interface is not the way to manipulate contacts. If you
add your data in the Contacts folder, birthday and anniversary information
will be added to the Calendar automatically and the Email addresses will how
up in the Address Book automatically.

I know, but I got accustomed to use the address book because before I used
Outook express. Is there any way to solve this problem and continue using the
address book?

You've already been given that answer. No.
