I want to export my contact information in Outlook to Outlook Express and I
want it to include my mobile (cell) 'phone numbers. Is this possible? Thanks
for any help!

Try File - Import and Export -> Import from another program or file ->
Outlook Express

I tried that before but it doesn't seem to import the mobile numbers. That's
the problem that I'm having - I can't get the numbers across. Any other
ideas? Thanks

I just did this as a test and the mobile phone number is one of the standard
field mappings. In Outlook, click File>Import and Export>Export to a file.
Select "Comma Separated Values (Windows)" and click Next. Select your
Contacts folder and click Next. Enter the name of a file, giving it an
extension of ".csv". Click Next, then Finish.

In Outlook Express, click FIle>Import>Other Address Book. Select "Text File
(Comma Separated values)" and click Import. Browse to the file you created
above, click Next, then Finish. The "Home" tab of the OE contact items will
contain the mobile phone field.
