RE: How do I transfer my address book to a new computer?

You guys seem to be the only folks who can help me:

I want to transfer eMails, yes.
I want to transfer contacts, yes.

But most importantly: I want to be able, on my new computer, to create an
eMail and type in Ste. . .for example, and right away, I get a pull down
selection of Stephen, Steve, Stephanie@aol.com, etc. Get it?

Is this information located in the .pst file that you speak of here? If
this question isn't clear enough, let me do the back end. Without this
hidden file/feature, I will have to type through or resend to everyone I've
ever written to, an eMail to have their eMail captured in my (potential) To:,
CC: or BCC: line.

I sure hope someone can help me out there with this.

21st century customer service - " got to our web site" - stinks. . .!

So you want to transfer your autocompletion cache, not your Contacts. The
methods for doing so are well documented and posted here frequently. Read
the paragraph entitled "Migrating your NK2(s) file to a new machine" here:

Thank you very much. I am sincerely grateful: I have been digging for this
info forever and NO ONE knew what I was talking about.

I'll give it a try.
You the man.
