Thanks. From: "David" < [email protected]> Hello there;
these steps should take care of your addressbook contacts. To export Outlook Express address book to a comma separated value (csv) file. open Outlook express, 1. Go to the file menu with alt+f. 2. Press the letter E=export. 3, Press enter on address book. 4, An export tool dialog will begin, you will have a list-view with text file (comma separated value) in the list. Press space bar to select it. 5, Tab to export-button and press enter. 6, Your being asked what you want to save the exported file as, type in a file name with an extension of csv, for example; addressbook.csv Tab and hit enter on next button. You will be in an csv export dialog where it wants to know what fields you want. They will all already be selected, so just tab to the finish button and hit enter. It will tell you it has been exported, hit enter on okay. Hit enter on the close button. now, your addressbook will be saved in your documents. you now need to import your contacts into MSOutlook2007. if you need more help please let me no. ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Cook To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, July 20, 2011 5:10 AM Subject: [Blind-Computing] Outlook Express & Address Book Hi All, I have not done this in several years.
