    Outlook express problem

    My Outlook Express is damaged, can't save addresses. Is there any chance to open and save address book.
    I run Win XP Pro

    No you can't open it, but you can save it to cd or another folder on your harddrive. It's listed in Documents and Settings>user name>Application Data>Microsoft. Just drag and drop to a prenamed new folder, on desktop or your "My Documents" folder.

    MikeKea--The wab.exe file is what makes the OE Address Book run and open. It normally resides in C:\Program Files\Outlook Express. As photolady has said, in WinXP the Address Book. itself, is in C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Microsoft\Address Book
    You might consider restoring any corrupt files by Start|Run|type sfc /scannow|OK. You may be asked for your WinXP CD so have it ready.
    Are you getting any error messages?
