Outlook Express to Microsoft Outlook373913

I needed a trip from your friend a few days ago as she'd thought we would stop using Outlook Express on her Microsoft windows and start using Microsoft Outlook. One of many causes of this was to utilise the Calendar and reminders which are options that come with Microsoft Outlook. Pretty simple task she thought, when I reminded her about the have to transfer all of her messages and contacts, it changed her mind and she considered staying with Outlook Express. Well as it ended up, it was a task that needed to be planned, but was quite easy. Firstly, what we did was start OE (Outlook Express) and through the File menu tab, select Export then Messages. This might allow us to export her current email, a mixture of messages in her Inbox in addition to hundreds that was filed away in folders for future reference. Well, when we visited Export then Messages, Outlook Express prompted us the process would automatically export the messages to Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Exchange. Sweet, exactly what we wanted!

The next thing would have been to export out all of her contacts so that they may be used in Microsoft Outlook and save continuously keying in those email addresses of friends, family and business acquaintances. Again, it turned into a simple task of selecting Export from your File menu tab in Outlook Express, however this time selecting Address Book instead of messages. This raised the Address Book Export Tool. Now this brought us into a sudden halt even as we were prompted with two export options. One was to export to an Exchange Personal Address Book and also the second with a Text File (comma separated values - CSV). Without having Exchange available we selected the second option, closed our eyes and hit the Export button. Well we were prompted for a spot to save the exported CSV, and made a decision to save it to the Desktop and named it addresses.csv Could all this be so simple and simple? Now all we would have liked to do was start Microsoft Outlook and see what else would have to be completed. So that's what happened, opened up Microsoft Outlook and voila, every one of the messages had been imported into Microsoft Outlook. To ensure we will send and receive email in Microsoft Outlook, we all had to go and hang up inside the email account details under the Tools menu tab. Once we had Microsoft 'office' 2007 installed, we selected Account Settings from the Tools menu tab and proceeded to make a new email account from instructions supplied by her email vendor. Most of the details we wanted could possibly be obtained from back checking the settings from 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 account password. Even as we tested sending an e-mail to a friend, we had been reminded that people had not imported inside the contacts from Outlook Express Login. Therefore we searched determined for the File menu tab Import and Export that gave us an array of actions to perform. The most suitable was Import from another program or file, so that is what we clicked and we were prompted to pick data type. Now both of us remembered we had exported the contacts within a comma separated value file or CSV file, so proceeded to scroll from the report on options and located what looked like a best match, Comma Separated Values (Windows). It then prompted for a file and that we browsed towards the Desktop and located the addresses.csv file created only minutes before, selected to import in to the Contacts folder and waited. Only seconds later it completed and now we then made itself known yet the Contacts inside the navigation pane and might see the contacts from Outlook Express.
