In setting up a new system, I have copied the address book from my old
machine to the new default location on the new computer but the addresses don't show up in OE. I have the TOM.WAB located in C:\Documents and Settings\Tom\Application Data\Microsoft\Address folder but when I open OE and check the Address book, it only shows addresses that been replied to since I set up the new computer. These turn out to be address that are listed in the Main Identity Contacts and I see no mention of Tom's Contacts with almost 1000 names and groups. If I use the Explorer to find the TOM.WAB file and open it manually, I see both the Main Identity Contacts (few) and Tom's Contacts (many). I need to be able to access Tom's Contacts in OE,. I bought this laptop from Best Buy and it was a floor/demo model. They supposedly removed all their demo softsware and set up my logon as Tom. But, when it boots up, it comes up in a user (named Kiosk) that I can't delete because they didn't provide me with the password. I always have to log off that identity and log onto Tom. I think this is what is causing the problem in Address Book. Unfortunately, I am in Asia and can't get back to that store for a few more weeks. Any help will be appreciated, Tom |
