I'm transferring most of my workload from my desktop to my laptop. I have Thunderbird on both computers. I need to know how to export my contact list from my desktop to my laptop. That's the only thing I need transferred. I have been unable to find anyplace that will do that for me. Both computer use Windows 7. I believe my desktop uses the home version. I don't believe my laptop uses the home edition, but I don't remember how to see what kind of Windows my laptop is using. Thank you. cris47@windstream.net
