Won't work.......you will have to import into Windows Mail and then export
to Outlook.

Vista doesn't HAVE OE so how will that page help the OP?

If he has Outlook, why can't he point to the OE database and just import
from that?

Recently I have purchased a PC which comes wtih Office Small Business 2007.
All programs are running fine except Excel 2007 which is extremely slow. For
example, it takes around 20 seconds just to adjust a column width. Also, the
longer it runs, the further the degradation in speed.

Any clue to the problem?

You should start a new thread rather than piggybacking on an existing one
with a new question. Also, have you asked in an Office newsgroup?
