I'm not so sure it is automatically given an extension as it was in '98  but 
in xp  I do the following to keep the file as a back up.  From my in box I 
go to file menu, cursor down to export,  arrow right and press enter.
Now I cursor down to save as text file, second option and type in a name and 
location I can find.  Something like addbook.txt for instance in a directory 
I can find.

You do get the option to save various fields within the address book but I 
usually shift tab back to finish, and accept the default.

Hope that helps.

The dbx folders in outlook express are another story.
Documents and settings etc

Kind Regards
David Dick

Hi,

Please can someone tell me the extension of the exported file from Outlook
Express. In Windows 98 it was Wab, but in XP I cannot find such a file.

Thanks for your help,
