have express .pst file-want to download to outlook 2003 add book

#1 March 16th, 2005, 08:37 PM

I have an Outloook Express ".pst" address book file from my previous
employer. I don't want to have to type in all of the contacts from this
previous version of Outlook now that I am using Outlook 2003. How do I
copy/import the information from the "old" Outlook to the "new" Outlook?
Thank you!!!

Not possible. Outlook Express does not use and cannot create a PST file.
Only Outlook does.
Just open the file in Outlook using File Open Outlook Data File, and
copy what you need from it.
