outlook express address book
Over the weekend my 1st computer crashed. I have a 2nd
computer to which I just transfered over my Outlook Express account to. But my outlook express address book was not transfered. I have a few hundred names/e-mail addresses that I need. Please tell me how to retrieve my address book from my old computer that is no longer working. Keep in mind the computer won't even boot up. Thanks Melissa parker |

..... Keep in mind the computer won't even boot up.
Not even into Real Mode DOS using the Windows Startup (floppy) Disk? If not, then you will probably need professional help, unless you know how to remove your hard drive and add it as a secondary drive to your other computer. If you can do that, you can retrieve the original address book and copy or import it to the 2nd machine. Mart "Melissa Parker" wrote in message ... Over the weekend my 1st computer crashed.

Just curious, who told you that? Try setting your old hard disk as a slave, put it on the computer and import your address book. If you don't know how to make your old hard drive into a slave, take your computer and the old hard drive and get a professional to do it for you.

You must understand this is a peer-to-peer group of people who help each other out with problems and not Microsoft. You recieved an answer to your problem from Mart as usually the answer is given here in the NG so others who may have the same problem can find help and no one will email on a one to one basis. Hope this helps. Joan Melissa Parker wrote: It has been a couple of days and I have not received a response yet to the e-mail attached below. I was told I would receive one w/n 24hrs. Please help me.

Joan, Melissa has posted via the infamous CDO for Win2K, so if as you
suggest, that she was expecting a direct email reply then she may not see any of our responses g Mart "Joan Archer" wrote in message ...

That's the wonder of using OE's message rules. I use a specific colour for
all posts that have in the From field. I use other rules to colour other posts including my own, those over a certain number of lines, those from Microsoft staff and yet another colour for MVP replies. Makes checking the NGs so much easier even if there are the odd errors leading to a post being wrongly coloured or missing its colour. -- Mike M Joan Archer wrote: That wouldn't surprise me g didn't bother to check the headers. |
