Mick; search the old drive for ".wab" files (windows address book) then use the import feature in outlook express. You can also import messages/folders from the old drive. I usually just do a search for ".dbx" files and you will find the mail store on the old drive. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mick Fitzpatrick" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Friday, July 30, 2004 6:06 AM Subject: [PCSOFT] Retrieve address book from old hard drive > Is it possible to retrieve the address book (for Outlook Express) from that > old drive (now set up as a slave) and used it on her new machine?
