Re: Address book

Did you disable sharing of contacts with OL?

I followed your instruction religiously. All done. But where did the
import address go in OE?

After completion of import, I opened OE.
Create Mail > To (for addresses)
It only shows the same Main Identity's Contact as before. I do not seem to
find new addresses from OL (imported).
Shared Contact is empty.
Needed your further instruction.

If you don't use OL for email, why do you use its Address Book?

Here's what I'd do:

1. Export your OL contacts as a CSV file.

2a. Disable sharing of (Windows/OE) Address Book contacts with OL - see
http://www.insideoe.com/files/wab.htm#share.

2b. If you don't use any components of OL other than its contacts (e.g.,
Calendar), remove OL from your install of MS Office 2003 via Add/Remove
Programs > Change/Remove (have your Office CD handy).

3a. Import the CSV file from OL into (Windows/OE) Address Book via File >
Import > Other Address Book;

OR...

3b. Create a Standalone Address Book
(http://www.insideoe.com/files/wab.htm#wabexe) and import the OL CSV file
into it.

Then, how can I synchronize addresses between Outlook (2003) and Outlook

I maintain Contact current with Outlook but I use OE exclusively for
emailing.
Thank you. Roman

No. And if you disable sharing, any changes that you made while sharing
was enabled will not be available (seen) in Address Book.

I use both Outlook 2003 and Outlook Express.
Both share the same address book by modifying WAB4.
But I see some missing addresses in OutlookExpress.
Is there anyway to tweak to show up all addresses in Outlook (i.e.,
contact)?
