Morning all,
can anyone tell me how to export an outlook express group, I have exported the address book as a CSV file but it doesn't seem to have included the group within the exported file, thanks in advance for your help.
Rod

All right, I've had to do this a little bit ago. You need to import the address book and then export it as CSV file. If this doesn't work, then I'll see what else i can do

I dont think you are quite getting it. I have exported my address book that includes a group, as a CSV file, all the contacts are in the CSV file but not the group. I would like to be able to save the group in case of PC/hard drive crash.
Cheers

Found this post from within the broader search linked below:

Create a standalone WAB file (Start/Run and type: WAB /new) and give it a
name and location to be stored at. Then open it by double clicking it and
size it to only use a portion of the screen. Now open your address book in
Outlook Express, go to the folder desired, select one group member by
highlighting, then press Ctrl+A to select them all, Ctrl+C to copy them to
the clipboard. You can now close the Outlook Express address book and click
once in the address portion of the new WAB file and press Ctrl+V to paste
the names in (you will have to hit OK for each addition, but it beats typing
them all in) and you can now take a copy of that new address book on a
floppy or just use the address book as a standalone for whenver you wish to
use it. See this link for more on standalone WAB files:

Hi Jephree
