My wife's new desktop computer runs Vista and we're going to be going on a
trip and taking our laptop with us. On her old computer she used Outlook
Express and she uses Outlook Express on the laptop. In the past whenever
we've gone on a trip we've always just exported her contacts on her desktop
computer and imported them to the laptop so she'd have the latest entries
when we were on the road. Is there any trick to doing the same thing
between Vista Mail and Outlook Express? TIA!
 
You can export Vista's Windows Contacts to a CSV (comma separated
values) file, which can then be imported into Outlook Express.
Seems like you would get a lot of duplicates that way, though.

Open you Contacts, click Export and select CSV file. Copy that files to the
laptop and import it into the Address Book.
