I am trying to import to the MAC my Outlook Express addresses from my PC. It said that it will take a Vcard but that only makes one card. I have 300 addresses. I searched on the Forum but no one had a solution other than re typing. I can't believe that is the way to do it.

Have you tried copying the Microsoft User Data folder?

NO but I will give it a try. I saw the Address Book likes LDIF files. So I was able to import Outlook Express into Netscape convert to LDIF. I made sure there were 20 or so contacts tried to import in the MAC and it said there were no contacts to import.

I can't seem to find on the PC the folder you are talking about Microsoft User Data.
