I copied my old email info from Incredimail (not a good program to deal with)
etc. into a file on my desktpo. I came thru as Excel. I thought I got it into
my Outlook contact list but some items got lost. Now I can not find my ".pab"
or get these into my address book for email and auto-complete when I try to
send emails.
HELP! Stay away fro Incredmail.

The PAB is obsolete. You should have the Outlook Address Book service in
your mail profile, all of your contacts should be in your Contacts folder,
and then you should enable that folder as an Address Book. Right-click the
Contacts folder, choose Properties, select the Outlook Address Book tab, and
check the box labeled "Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book".
