Hi Mike to add a contact press ctrl shift and C. seems to work anywhere in outlook. fill in the necessary details and then hit ctrl and S to save. alternatively, choose the file menu, then choose the new option, and scrol down till you see 'new contact.' - this opens same screen as above. I hope this helps.

I was unsure if you were repeating what I had said. I can certainly tell you about moving your contacts from Outlook Express. When you go to the Outlook Express Address Book. Go to File and Export. In the dialog box that comes up give the file a meaningful name and then tab to your next option which is file type. In the dropdown box choose the final option which starts with the word Other. I presume you are going to save on a flash/memory drive so you will need to do that also. In Outlook itself you want to find the Contacts Folder and press Enter or have someone click on that. You then import your contacts. I think again in Outlook you go to File and choose Import Contacts. You may be asked then by Outlook to insert your origional Office 2003 disk in order that Outlook can install the necessary translation software. At least I was because when I installed Office 2003 on my computer, I choose the simple installation. I am not sure in relation to your request regarding Inbox on one side of the screen and all your folders on the left, something I also asked about. I have found that it is there anyway so nothing for me to adjust anyway. Hope this is of some help to you and sorry if I have misunderstood and written things you know all about.

How or can I have my contacts showing on the same screen as the in box and folders. 2. How do I add contacts? It is Outlook 2003 I am using. Another problem.... I tried to export my contacts, but the format is different, the Outlook does not accept the export from Outlook Express.

I am using Outlook 2003. I would also like to know how I can set Outlook so that it goes directly to my Inbox and so that I have all my folders on the left side of the screen and my Inbox on the remainder. I do not wish to have a Preview Payne either. Thank you for all help.
