Hi,
I'm using Vista home premium and Office 2007, the question is about Outlook. On my last PC I had XP and office 2007 and: When I received a mail from someone in my addressbook and I had a picture of that person pasted in the V-card, I could see that picture in the header of that mail. On my new PC I found out that I no longer have that feature. And no help file would bring me any further, no matter how I described my problem. I contacted the Dutch dicussion group first but -to my surprise - I got the reply "we don't know of such a feature, what are you talking about?" Who can help me restore this feature? Cheers, Frank |

Are you using the same information store? If so, how did you migrate it to
the new version? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "FvD" wrote in message ... Hi, I'm using Vista home premium and Office 2007, the question is about Outlook.

"Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Are you using the same information store?

I just imported my addressbook, having both PC's in a network, using the MS import possibility. One thing that is not standard is that I store my .pst files in a folder in "Documents" because that's easier with backups. But I used to do that on my other PC as well. |

Then the first thing you need to do is migrate your data properly. Outlook
does not even have an address book, so we have no idea what you actually did. Importing is never the correct way to transfer data. It is a good way to lose data. We post instructions on how to migrate data properly daily. Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup or transfer: http://www.slipstick.com/config/backup.htm http://www.howto-outlook.com/Howto/backupandrestore.htm http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...771141033.aspx Note that some of the information on these pages is outdated and no longer applies to Outlook 2003 or 2007. Specifically: 1. Ignore any advice to copy your PST file to Outlook's default location to connect it to your profile. Doing so only corrupts your profile. Copy it anywhere BUT the default location and open it within your Outlook profile. 2. Ignore any advice that tells you to use export or import to transfer Outlook data. That has never been sound advice, but the process has become too deeply flawed now to be of any use whatsoever. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "FvD" wrote in message news "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Are you using the same information store?
