Default Importing files from xp

Several questions. How do I import my address book and message stores from
xp to vista. I was using OE v7 and now its windows mail? What is the file
name for the address book in vista? Where is the message stores located in
vista? Is there a document or file somewhere that I can read that answers
questions of converting from xp to vista? Thanks for the help/

I think that Vista uses the windows contact file as it's address book;

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Mail\wab:\

Hope this helps.
