Hi. I have a friend who I helped transfer email and contacts from Outlook
Express on her
Win 98 computer to Outlook 2003 on her new computer.
I had to import the dbx files from her old computer's outlook express to the
outlook express on her new computer, then exported the contacts and email
from outlook express on her new computer to outlook 2003 on her new compter.

HOWEVER, she says that when composing messages, the address book/contacts
autocomplete that normally starts filling in email addresses on the To: line
no longer works
for her hundreds of contacts.

I googled and found info on transferring autocomplete info from outlook to
outlook, BUT NOT from outlook express to outlook. Is this possible, and if
so, how???
