| | Re: Share outlook contacts between outlook and windows mail Not directly. You will have to export from Outlook and import into Windows Contacts. Also, those two sets of contacts won't stay in sync. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (WLMail) "Vishal Sheth" <vishalsheth@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:35717903-AEA9-4655-803D-516615112EC7@xxxxxx Quote: > Can I use the outlook contacts with windows mail?

| | Re: Share outlook contacts between outlook and windows mail The problem is I maintain all my contacts in outlook. I use the same for email. Now I'm using windows mail for email as I'm getting my pictures/photos displayed in outlook. I don't want to maintain 2 contact lists. Is there a way to sync it? Import Export would not solve.

| | Re: Share outlook contacts between outlook and windows mail Sorry, I'm not aware of any way to share and sync one set of contacts between Outlook and WM. Windows Live Mail has a mechanism for syncing contacts among several computers by use of a common Hotmail account, but that won't help with Outlook. Perhaps the Outlook experts have some ideas for a workaround: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...utlook.general -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (WLMail) "Vishal Sheth" <vishalsheth@xxxxxx> wrote in message news  38D97BB-73BC-417F-A9BF-74E8472D0B4B@xxxxxxQuote: > The problem is I maintain all my contacts in outlook.
