Can OL2000 and OE 5.01 share a *.wab?
Outlook Express can share the Contacts folder in O2K, but only if you
configure O2K in Internet Mail Only mode. There is no way to share a *.wab,
as O2K has no hook into the *.wab format.
To export from a *.wab to a *.pab, the *.pab must be configured first in
O2K. OE (or wab.exe) will then export directly into the default O2K *.pab.
