Default finding address book for Outlook Express

I recently changed my boot hard drive and re-installed XP. After the
installation I realized that I forgot to backup my address book for
Outlook Express. Fortunately, the previous hard drive was still
around, such that I could connect it to the machine. However, I could
not find any WAB file, which was identified on Microsoft's web site as
the address book for OE. Any suggestion?

In addition to Hal's reply, for future info:
This newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003/2007 from the Office suite of products. Outlook
Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're
accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...ress.ge neral
Good luck!
