I recently did an audio tutorial on OEBackup which will do the same thing in a blink once it's setup correctly.

Hi Michael, Try what's below and see if that works for you. Your Outlook Express address book is stored in a file called the wab file. To find your address book, go to find on your start menu and type in *.wab. This will locate your wab file which is your address book. To save the address book, copy your wab file. You can also save your address book in the following manner. Bring up your address book with control shift B. Do an alt f for the file menu. Arrow down and hit enter on export. Then hit enter on address book. A standard save as dialog will begin. It will want a file name, you should give it an extension of wab. For example. copyabook.wab. You can shift tab back to the save in combo box and pick a folder where you want to save the file just like usual. Then tab to the save button and hit enter. When you want to import it to your other computer, follow the same steps, except choose import instead of export from the file menu. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Amaro" <mikeam...@earthlink.net> To: <blind-computing@jaws-users.com> Sent: Friday, February 13, 2009 4:07 PM Subject: [Blind-Computing] exporting acounts and address book Hello listers, I would like to know how to export my acount and address book in OE?
