Hi Linda,
AFAIK, you've never been able to 'swap' Address books between OL and OE
natively...
And you're right about needing to export your address book to a file - but
it's actually the Contacts folder that you need to export, not the Address
Book.
So are you saying that with OL open, you don't have a File > Import and
Export menu?
If that's the case, then it should be there, and you may need to either do a
'Repair' and/or reset the menus/toolbars... I just need to find the command
line switch that does that... Will come back...
Cheers

: Sorry to keep posting beta questions in here, but I've
:searched the MS
:groups and see others posting this problem and getting no
:answer...and I've
:sent it to some Outlook groups and got no answer, so I'm
:gonna ask you
:people in here who are using the Office 2003 beta...
:
:_____________
:
:Is anyone else running this beta and can help me?
:
:Here's my problem
:
:I am running Outlook 2003 beta 2, with the most recent
:Technical Refresh
:Patch
:
:I want to share my Outlook Address book (I have my
:contacts in my Contacts
:Folder and have the option checked to "show this as an
:Outlook Address Book)
:with Outlook Express 6 but I can't figure out how to do
:it in either Outlook
:or OE. When I go into OE and try to Import it, it asks for a file
:location...so I assume I have to Export it to a file in
:Outlook first?
:However, in Outlook 2003 there is no long an
:Import/Export command in the
:File Menu or in the Address Book itself...so I'm lost as
:to how to do this
:
:Why isn't there an Import/Export feature in Outlook's
:File Menu anymore?? I
:use this a LOT to bring in info from Excel to make new
:contacts folders
:etc....if we no longer have Import/Export capabilities
:how do we do this
:stuff now?
:
:Can anyone point me in the right direction?
:
:Thanks.
