Outlook Express to Microsoft Outlook1347996

I had created an appointment from your friend a few days ago as she'd thought we would stop using Outlook Express on her Or windows 7 and initiate using Microsoft Outlook. One of the main reasons for this was to utilise the Calendar and reminders which are features of Microsoft Outlook. Really quite simple task she thought, however when I reminded her regarding the have to transfer all of her messages and contacts, it changed her mind and she considered keeping Outlook Express. Along with it ended up, it absolutely was an action that should be planned, but was quite simple. Firstly, what we did was open up OE (Outlook Express) and in the File menu tab, select Export and then Messages. This could allow us export the current email, a mixture of messages in her own Inbox along with hundreds that were filed away in folders for future reference. Well, once we engaged Export then Messages, Outlook Express prompted us how the process would automatically export the messages to Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Exchange. Sweet, exactly what we wanted!

Step 2 ended up being to export out all of her contacts so they might be utilized in Microsoft Outlook and save on a regular basis keying in those email addresses of friends, family and business acquaintances. Again, it turned out to be an easy task of deciding on Export from your File menu tab in Outlook Express, however time selecting Address Book instead of messages. This brought up the Address Book Export Tool. This brought us to a sudden halt even as were prompted with two export options. One ended up being export for an Exchange Personal Address Book and also the second into a Text File (comma separated values - CSV). Without having Exchange available we selected the 2nd option, closed our eyes colliding with the Export button. We were prompted for a destination for a save the exported CSV, and chose to save it for the Desktop and named it addresses.csv Could all of it be that easy and self-explanatory? Now all we needed to perform was throw open Microsoft Outlook and find out what else should be completed. So it is exactly what happened, opened Microsoft Outlook and voila, all the messages had been imported into Microsoft Outlook. To make sure we will send and receive email in Microsoft Outlook, we also required to go as well as set the email account details within the Tools menu tab. Once we had Ms office 2007 installed, we selected Account Settings from your Tools menu tab and proceeded to produce a new email account from instructions given by her email company. Most of the details we would have liked could possibly be extracted from back checking the settings within the old Outlook Express program under Tools, Accounts and Mail. Such as her name, email, incoming and outgoing servers and her email account password. As we tested sending an e-mail to a friend, we had arrived reminded that people had not imported from the contacts from Outlook Express Login. And we all looked around and discovered on the File menu tab Import and Export that gave us a wide range of actions to execute. The best option was Import from another program or file, so it is exactly what we clicked so we were prompted to pick a file type. Now both of us remembered that we had exported the contacts inside a comma separated value file or CSV file, so proceeded to scroll over the list of options and located what seemed like a best match, Comma Separated Values (Windows). Then it prompted for the file and now we browsed to the Desktop and found the addresses.csv file created only minutes before, selected to import into the Contacts folder and waited. Only seconds later it completed and that we then made itself known yet the Contacts from the navigation pane and may see all of her contacts from Outlook Express.
