SUMMARY

Microsoft Outlook 97 and Microsoft Outlook Express are different programs with different capabilities, although both can send to and receive e-mail from the Internet. You cannot synchronize the information stored in the two programs; that is, if you have an address stored in the Address Book in Outlook Express, that address is not automatically available in the Personal Address Book in Outlook. This article explains how to export addresses from Outlook Express into the Outlook Personal Address Book.
