    Outlook Express dbx files into Vista Home Premium

    I did a data transfer from my desktop (Windows XP Home Edition) to my laptop
    (HP dv9000 with Vista Home Premium). All the Address Book got transfered but
    how do I open them in Vista?

    Open Windows Mail and in the menu bar click on first ICON (contacts) after
    send/receive. It should display all addresses that were imported.

    What about if you choose the upgrade option in the vista setup? does that
    transfer e-mails over from outlook express to windows mail?
