Default can't find outlook express now I've run Outlook

Up until a few hours ago I was using outlook express and then decided I'd
prefer to use Outlook which was already installed on my computer.

Having opened outlook I can no longer get back to my old emails and contacts
which are in outlook express. I also don't seem to have the facility to
import data from outlook express.

Help?!?!?!

What stops you from opening Outlook Express again? It is probably still on
your Start menu. It is probably still in the Quick Launch bar. WHat
happens when you try to start it?

Thanks for the suggestion but somehow it has disappeared from my computer.
Not on any program listing, quick launch bar etc.

I have just resorted to copying the application from my other PC and have
just this minute got back to my emails. I'll not be attempting to switch to
Outlook again!

Thanks again for your response though.

The problem was that I couldn't find OE. Have finally resorted to copying
the OE application from my other PC and this seems to have rectified the
problem of getting to OE at least.

Thanks for your response, it's nice to find someone trying to help

OE is in your root program files folder
%ProgramFiles%\Outlook Express\msimn.exe

Since it's part of Windows, click StartControl PanelAdd or Remove
ProgramsAdd or Remove WIndows Components, locate Outlook Express, and add
it back in.
