How can I import contacts from Windows Mail to Outlook 2003

Please explain how to import contacts from Windows Mail to Outlook 2003

Open Contacts, select Export, CSV format. Import into Outlook.

You got it 90% right, Gary, but you left off an important piece of
information -- the DOS version of the CSV must be selected to make it
work:

Open Contacts, select Export, CSV format (DOS), Import into Outlook.

Many trials and errors led me to discover this.

Thanks.

Hi, I have read countless threads & tried for many hours with no luck to import contacts from windows mail to outlook 2003. I followed your advice but my when I try to export there is no dos choice. If you have any additional advice I will be very very appreciative. I really am disillusioned with vista as it is such a hog and not very friendly. I have not discovered why it is worth using?

I think it is not possible to import contacts / address book from Windows Mail to Outlook 2003.
See this Export contacts from Windows Mail to Outlook 2003

Yes you can.
In WM, export to CSV
In Outlook, import CSV

I agree with the guy who said it cannot be done.
There is NO option in Outlook 2003 for IMPORT CSV

the options:

Export to a file
Import a vcard file
import and icalendar or vcalendar file
import internet mail account settings
import internet mail and addresses

In Windows Mail:
File - Export - Windows Contacts - CSV (Comma separated Values)
save the file

In Outlook:
File - Import and Export - Import from another program or file - Comma
Separated Values (Windows)
find the file
