Just got a new PC with Vista and I am unable to get my saved email address book into Windows mail - can anybody help please?

It appears when using the contacts icon in the tool bar but not when I try to access it when creating an email.

If I "reply to" a senders email that address goes into the address book and I can then pick it up and use it when creating a new email.

I hope this makes sense and that someone can possibly guide me.

Thanks

Import/export?
Try looking for a Vista newsgroup and/or call your *new PC* supplier's 
helpline.

Where was your address book created? Exporting from the original 
application to a CSV file then importing to live mail is usually fine :)

You have posted  to a newsgroup set up by
the government to plug the gaps created by the abysmal
failure of their Psychiatric Care in the Community Policy. 
The uk.local hierarchy was devised to provide an outlet for
individuals who would otherwise spending their days sitting
at home wearing an aluminium foil hat waiting for a full moon
to rise. It was hoped that this would reduce the incidence
of nutters out there howling at the moon and frightening the
shit out of their neighbours. Another of HMGs aims and 
objectives was to provide a distraction to take their minds
of the problem of who they were going to knife to death next.
Unfortunately, this group has been taken over by the 
articulate lower middle classes who have succeeding in 
driving HMGs target audience away.Independant research has
shown that it was the amount and quality of the inane drivel,
called small talk which the middle classes are adept at, which
had the effect of doing their heads in. They left to
protect what was left of their sanity. Saddly this has happened
to the whole of uk.local. hierarchy.  

This newsgroup is a very good example of another HMG failure.
