I have a friend who was just hacked. The hacker took his Outlook
address book and all his messages. Of course like 99% of the people on
the Internet he has no backup arrangement and I had just convinced him
to do it. BTW his new external hard drive arrived the same day. LOL
He did have an old copy of Outlook express that had a contact list
that could be imported to his Outlook. Now when he starts an email
and clicks on the "To" line he gets an empty address book but he can
by selecting contact list he sees the contact list as addresses. I do
not have Outlook on my PC so I can not do this. Since you can take an
email and add it to the contact list there should be a way to import
from the contact list to the address book. He is running Windowsxp
Pro version and I believe iy is Outlook 2010.
email response not expected but to respond remove .uk at end
TIA
