you'll need to set up an ldap address book in Outlook. Outlook doesn't use
iaf - use it with Vista's Mail and if outlook can't import it, you can copy
the configuration information from Mail to Outlook.

Please let me know the process for copying configuration form express to MS
outlook. but i just want to copy that address which usually being stored on
active directory file seems our company updates daily that file globally.

open it in OE, then open outlook. if outlook offers to import, import it. if
not, copy the settings from the acct in OE and enter them in Outlook.

Once you connect to the AD using LDAP you'll see whatever updates they make
to the AD.

I have done account settings from Outlook express to Microsoft Outlook. but
now remained only Active Directory;

As Diane said, Outlook accesses AD using LDAP.

AD = Active Directory

LDAP address book is used to access it.
