Re: importing outlook contacts on xp into windows mail on vista
If anyone can help, I tried to import the CSV file (which appears to be an
excel file)
into WMail but it reads...."this contact has a non-internet e-mail
address...this contact will be imported to Contacts without an e-mail
address." If I open the Excel spreadsheet the first column is the name then
the second column is the email address.....any suggestions?
