Thanks Vincent.  I have XP Prro and after a lot of trouble someone did tell me 
how to import from Outlook Express to Outlook on my Windows 7 but I did not 
import in to the WLM as I did not have a clue about how to do that.  Actually I 
believe it was Paul J Traynor who told me so let me take the opportunity of 
thanking Paul here again.  As Paul said your contribution this morning to the 
list was invaluable.

  Vincent you do not say whether you are importing from Outlook or Outlook 
Express, I expect from Outlook.

    hello Paul and others

    after waisting loads of time trying to import contacts into windows live 
mail i finally got it. so here is how it is done for anyone else who wants it.

    first  get your back up of your contacts  and  do a copy and paste  from 
your  back up folder into your windows 7 contacts folder. after that then do as 
follows.

    1. press alt and g for the go menu
    2. arrow down to contacts or control shift and c.
    3. then do alt and f for file  menu  then arrow down to import
    4. arrow down to address book for current  windows user. press in here and 
the import will take place. 

    just to let you know the contacts folder on the windows 7 machine does not 
work with windows live mail for some reason and this is how it has to be done. 

    regards
    Vincent
