Cannot Import Outlook Express Address Book

I recently got a new computer. I copied my Identities (folders, etc)
and address book (*.wab) on disc and transferred them to the new
computer. I imported the identities no problem, but when I browse to
find the address book I want to import, it doesn't show it. It is right
there on the desktop (and on CD), but the import browse window does not
show it. Can anyone help?

thanks,
Scott

The OE experts in the OE newsgroup can probably tell you
straight away.

Thanks pegasus. I didn't know of that newsgroup. Fortunately I figured
it out. What I thought was my address book *.WAB file was in fact the
address book *EXE application. I went back to old system, exported the
address book *.wab file, transferred it, imported it. Everything is
fine.

Silly me!

ciao
