import contacts from a *.wab file
Yes, it's called Windows Live Mail though (which is a bit different from the
Windows Mail client in Vista) and it can indeed import from a wab-file as well. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- "Russ Valentine" wrote in message ...

import contacts from a *.wab file
Ah... you need to open the WLM contacts module to import. I looked on the
import menu while in mail and only saw messages - OE and mail have contacts and account on the import menu. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com/ Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: Do you keep Outlook open 24/7?
