How to import your Personal Address Book to Outlook 2007

This article describes how to import your Personal Address Book to Microsoft Office Outlook 2007.

When you install Outlook 2007, it automatically converts the Personal Address Book that you used in an earlier version of Microsoft Outlook. Outlook 2007 then adds the converted data to your Outlook 2007 Contacts folder.

If Outlook 2007 does not automatically convert your Personal Address Book, you can import your Personal Address Book to Outlook 2007. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Start Outlook 2007.
2. Click Import and Export on the File menu.
3. Click Import from another program or file, and then click Next.
4. Click Personal Address Book, and then click Next.
5. Click Browse, locate the Personal Address Book that you want to import, and then click OK.
   
   Note Earlier versions of Outlook assign a .pab file name extension to a Personal Address Book. By default, Outlook stores the Personal Address Book in the following folder:
   C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
6. Click Next.
7. Click Finish to import the Personal Address Book.
