Hi. I just imported my OE6 address book to my new pc.
Problem is all my contacts that used be separated into folders are all together in the a single folder. Did I do something wrong? Thanks. |

import address book = lost folders
Hi ravman,
Exporting the address book as a WAB file can be problematic because of identity issues or if shared with Outlook. Exporting as a comma-separated values file does not retain the folder hierarchy. If you still have access to the old address book you could use the following method. Address book sub-folders cannot be exported or imported, but you could rebuild the address book folders. One way would be to copy the sub-folder entries into their own Windows folders. Then copy them into the main contacts folder, and then move them to a sub-folder. Delete the entries in the main contacts WAB folder. It may possible to paste directly into a sub-folder, but they may go into the main contacts folder instead. More on what happens when you paste WAB entries into a Windows folder: http://home.earthlink.net/~kuaytim/exportwab.htm -- Tim K. aka Kuay Tim MVP - (IE/OE) Lynnwood, WA * "ravman" wrote in message ...
