Yes.
Open your contacts folder and choose "export" then select a csv (comma
separated value) file and save it to a USB drive.
Take the USB drive to your lap top.
Open your contacts folder and choose "import". Browse to the csv folder on
your USB drive as the source on the import.

I found it..the only problem is that csv format will not take care of
"Groups" at least as far as Ive been able to determine

Cheers

Correct!

Have you tried researching your questions from the previous asked and
answered posts?

Have a go with this:
http://groups.google.co.uk/advanced_...hl=en&q=&hl=en

Use the entry fields wisely.

Try: Exact Phrase -- contact groups.
With all these words -- Windows Mail
Search?

HTH?

Save the link, make it your Home page -- I do!

Re: Widow Mail live transfer

From XP to Vista, or from Vista to Vista?
From which source program, OE or Outlook or something else?

Re: Widow Mail live transfer

Then you are probably looking at the main WLM screen.
In WLM you must first open Contacts, and then go to its File, Export menu.

Incidentally, WLM questions are better asked in the WLM newsgroup.
