Both use XP Home and IE/OE 6.0
I want to copy the address book from the laptop to the desktop (the
laptop
is more up-to-date). I thought I would export it to my flash drive (from
laptop) and then import to desktop.
But I can't get the export function to work..
When I do file/export/address book I have to choose a directory and
specify
a file name. I did a search for *.wab but still can't find anything.
Suggestions?
