I am in the process of updating from Outlook Express 6 to Outlook 2007. So
far I have succeeded with installation and importing all my mails.
Now I am trying to import my addresses.
My OE 6 address database was divided into a number of folders containing
addresses applicable to a project, costumer etc. I have been informed that it
is impossible to import this structure directly. My next step was to make a
semicolon separated file (addresses.csv) containing all my addresses.
Now I have tried to import the file into Outlook 2007. I went through the
process and was finally asked to which folder I wanted to import the
address.cvs. I selected the contacts folder in the folder view. OK. Now a
transfer took place.
BUT to my disappointment, the Contacts folder had disappeared from the
folder view. I am unable to find the location of the imported addresses.
Apparently I goofed.
When I repeat the process I get the same folder view including the contact
folder.
Any ideas ??
 
BUT to my disappointment, the Contacts folder had disappeared from the
folder view.
Click to expand...

Are you using the Mail view in the Nav Pane? That view shows only
mail-enabled folders. If you want to see the Contacts folder, use the
Contacts or Folder List view.
 
I have solved the problem with the missing contacts folder. I had to change
to fplder view. OK

I did not find a solution to the import contact problem. I did it the hard
way by hand. So now I am up running.

Jorgen
