Outlook mucks up outlook express

by hrcsort-xp . Updated 21 years, 9 months ago

Having recently moved to Windows XP – I set up Outlook express under my user – set up my identities – imported all my folders and contact lists – everything was fine. I have one email account which needs to use Outlook. When I set up outlook it imported all my email addresses from my address book and OE no longer had any contacts [in some of the identities].

Any attempt to re-import my contacts does not seem to work. My .wab file under folder ‘address book’ looks fine with a section for each identity – but it is not fine under OE.

Has Outlok switched OE to use a diferent address book – if so how do I switch it back?

Is it possible to delete the Outlook feature from my user? – I think that I want to set this up seperately under a new user.

PS Why is microsoft software so difficult to use?
