    Hi Don,

    Welcome to the forums.

    Like Outlook Express, Windows Mail does not hold your addresses. They are kept in your 'Contacts Folder'. To transfer, you should be able to export your contacts as a CSV file (comma seperated values) and then go to the Contacts folder and import them. You can access the Contacts Folder from WM via Tools/Wndows contacts or Ctrl+Shift+C.

    Hope this helps.

    Gary

    Thanks Gary. The info I got from Google seemed a little tough to try. Dell and Microsoft were no help at all. Appreciate the reply.
