I'm trying to use Outlook 2000 with Vista Home Premium, but keep getting a
problem re: cannot open Windows Address book... WAB DLL not found. Perhaps
it's the Outlook 2000 compatibility problem others have been experiencing?
Due to WAB DLL problem, I'm being forced to use Windows Mail (WM). WM will
import Outlook 2000 Account ok. But falls over when I go
File/Import/Messages/MS Outlook. Just doesn't get any further than
that....no browse folder.
Anyone beeen able to import messages into WM from Oulook 2000 OR even
better, know how to 'fix' Outlook 2000 WAB file problem? I'd at least like
all my mail on one system!
