On your old computer, use Outlook Express to import all your Outlook 2000
data. The mail store of Outlook Express is compatible with the one from
Windows (Live) Mail which will allow you to migrate from Outlook to Windows
(Live) Mail.

Contacts can also be exported to a csv-file which Windows (Live) Mail can
import from.

Roady,

Outlook express is lookign for a WAP file. The only files associated with
outlook are the PST files. WAP must be encapsulated within?

As for exporting to CSV.that's when win2000 outlook is looking for missing
data1.msi file. I guess I'mjust hosed. Thanks for your suggestions.

Another method to get your contact information is via Excel (which can also
save as csv-file).
