258925 2004-08-06 22:37:00 Believe it or not I have never used Outlook, so I thought I might have a bo-peep and see what it was all about. OK, when it opened I got a message to the effect that it was opening for the first time and away it went. Fine, I had a look at it and closed it, but now I find there are no entries in my address book for Outlook Express! The address book opens OK but no names or contact details??? Where are they? I’ve searched and found *.wab but there doesn’t appear to be any entries there either. Now I can’t be sure opening Outlook caused the problem but I’m mighty suspicious.

Has anyone else struck this?

Cheers

Bob

258926 2004-08-06 22:43:00 if you can see the wab file try opening outlook express - file - import - wab file - browse to the location of the wab and follow the prompts.

have you checked outlook to see if your addresses are in there ?

258928 2004-08-06 23:07:00 Would you believe it Gordon? Your suggestion recovered an address book lost about 5 years ago! Unfortunately, no sign of my most recent one. :(

I've found another address book in Program files/Uninstall Information/Address Book but can't seem to do anything with it.
