142755 2003-05-09 21:41:00 I imported my address book from Outlook Express into Outlook 6. It did not import the folders only one long list of addresses. The help file says to open the address book, click on the new button, then new folder. There is no new folder option. Only new contact or new group. If I add new group, then when sending emails to a person in that group it sends it out to all the people in the group. As I belong to a number of oransizations I need to have folders for each group and contact the individuals individually at times in that group. I used to be able to do it in Outlook Express. Any ideas please. Had the same trouble with importing the address book into incredimail. keohane@slingshot.co.nz (3723)
142756 2003-05-09 22:42:00 Outlook is not Outlook Express

Outlook does not have a version called 6

Outlook Express does have a version called 6



Folders are intergal in Outlook

Groups are integral in Outlook Express

Folders are not integral in Outlook Express

Groups are not intergal in Outlook



Neither imports cleanly into the other



Redescribe the situation else expect gibberish

142758 2003-05-15 01:36:00 I seem to have Outlook 2000 and Outlook express 6. there might be more. NEither has an option to create folders in the address book. Maybe I should dump something and reinstall keohane@slingshot.co.nz (3723)
142759 2003-05-15 01:59:00 In address book:

On the left had side & they should be a folder called "Your name Contacts" right click on that then it should say " New" then you can create a new folder

Hope this helps :)

If you have Microsoft Office then it is very likely that you would have Outlook as well as Outlook Express, which comes with Internet Explorer.

142761 2003-05-15 03:06:00 To share contacts between Outlook 98 onwards and Outlook Express, go here - To share Contacts between Outlook and Outlook Express ( . slipstick . com/contacts/oeshare . htm" target="_blank">www . slipstick . com)

Groups will be visible in both OE and Outlook .

Groups can be created in one and accessible in the other .

Group members can be added, viewed, edited and deleted in either .




Take all recommended precautions before proceeding
