Just loaded 'Vista' to my reformatted computer. I saved my Outlook Express
folders (In-box and Out-box etc) and Address Book to CD for reinstating to Windows 'Mail'. I've imported the address book OK, but how do I import the folders ....Help please! Bob |

Unfortunately, Folders/Groups neither import nor export. If you have access
to the old WAB file on your earlier computer, you can move all contacts from the various folders/groups into the Shared Contacts folder and then you will at least have all the contacts. See this link for more info about the wab file: http://www.insideoe.com/files/wab.htm -- Jim Pickering MVP-Windows Mail applications Please reply only to the newsgroup.

Remove the Read Only attribute. Now use the Windows Mail File | Import. -- Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM http://www.fjsmjs.com Answer in newsgroup. Don't expect an answer to email. |
