Open your address book and File>Export>Address Book and follow the prompts, instead of saving to your hard drive just point the save to your Floppy. Or open your address book select all of your contacts and copy/paste onto a Floppy. They will be saved as vci files. If possible, which ever way you do it, make sure the contacts have been imported into the new system before you delete from the old. That's why I always make a second copy using the copy/paste to get the vci files, if the address book will not import back for some reason, all is not lost. |

| 48586 | 2002-05-13 05:03:00 | ahh ... AJ - remember me. You said my feedback to columns had so substance as I was one of the little people in life. Cant believe u cant even do this! Don't make me laugh!! Well use the import and export command of outlook highlighting the main folder and tick include sub folders. If u are copying to a CD and transporting it .. make sure after u copy from CD-R to new PC ... u change it so its not read only in the properties or Outlook would refuse it saying not enough priviledges even if u have admin rights. you could however export it to a netowrk drive of the new PC. and then import it from the new pc itself.

| 48587 | 2002-05-13 05:14:00 | when exporting choose what type u want is up to u. i tend to choose pst format since i have the entire profile on the new pc. like inbox, outbox, drafts, sent, other ones u have persoanlly created. also the crucial contacts u have and the diary list u may have. A PST file can easily be over 10MB ... with compression. RC |
