Need help converting Sidekick Plus to Windows

timwuzhere · Oct 27, 2016

The company I work for has been wanting to switch its customer database to windows for quite some time, I took the .adr file from sidekick plus and turned it into a .txt file so that I can copy and paste the entries into Outlook. This is proving to be quite a task, I would like to know if there is an easier way to do this or if there is some way to convert the entire database into something that can be imported to outlook. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Dear timwuzhere,

You need to open the file in Sidekick 95 and then export it with Sidekick97/Internet Sidekick as a file including the Contact Log as a field which you can import directly into Access or any other program.

Check out the FAQ pages for ways to obtain those programs.
