Outlook Express to Microsoft Outlook1602067

I'd an appointment coming from a friend recently as she'd made a decision to stop using Outlook Express on her Windows XP and begin using Microsoft Outlook. One of the main reasons for playstation 3 utilise the Calendar and reminders which might be top features of Microsoft Outlook. Really quite simple task she thought, however, if I reminded her concerning the need to transfer her messages and contacts, it changed her mind and then she considered sticking with Outlook Express. Well as it been found, it absolutely was an action that needed to be planned, but was quite simple. Firstly, that which you did was start OE (Outlook Express) and from the File menu tab, select Export and then Messages. This could allow us export all her current email, a mixture of messages in her own Inbox as well as hundreds that was filed away in folders for future reference. Well, if we visited Export then Messages, Outlook Express prompted us the process would automatically export the messages to Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Exchange. Sweet, precisely what we wanted!

The next step ended up being to export out all her contacts so they really could be found in Microsoft Outlook and save on a regular basis keying in those emails of friends, family and business acquaintances. Again, it developed into an easy task of choosing Export from the File menu tab in Outlook Express, however this time selecting Address Book as an alternative to messages. This raised the Address Book Export Tool. Now this brought us into a sudden halt even as were prompted with two export options. One ended up being to export to a Exchange Personal Address Book and the second into a Text File (comma separated values - CSV). Without having Exchange available we selected the other option, closed our eyes colliding with the Export button. We were prompted for the spot to save the exported CSV, and thought we would save it to the Desktop and referred to it as addresses.csv Could everything be that simple and self-explanatory? Now all we would have liked to accomplish was open up Microsoft Outlook and discover what else would have to be completed. So that's what happened, opened up Microsoft Outlook and voila, all of the messages had been imported into Microsoft Outlook. To make sure we could send and receive email in Microsoft Outlook, additionally we had to go and hang up the email account details beneath the Tools menu tab. As we had Ms office 2007 installed, we selected Account Settings from the Tools menu tab and proceeded to generate a new email account from instructions furnished by her email company. The majority of the details we would have liked might be obtained from back checking the settings inside the old Outlook Express program under Tools, Accounts and Mail. Such as her name, email address contact information, incoming and outgoing servers and her email password. Once we tested sending an email into a friend, i was reminded that we we had not imported from the contacts from Outlook Express Login. So we looked around and located for the File menu tab Import and Export that gave us a variety of actions to do. The best option was Import from another program or file, so it is precisely what we clicked so we were prompted to pick folders type. Now both of us remembered that we had exported the contacts in a comma separated value file or CSV file, so proceeded to scroll with the list of options and found what looked like a best match, Comma Separated Values (Windows). It then prompted for any file so we browsed for the Desktop and discovered the addresses.csv file created only minutes before, selected to import in to the Contacts folder and waited. Only seconds later it completed so we then visited the Contacts inside the navigation pane and can see all of her contacts from Outlook Express.
