OE address book

HD crashed. Installed new one. I had email addresses backed up on a CD. Email is stored in a sub folder off My Documents.
I copied from the CD to the HD. Then imported addresses from Outlook Express. The main Identity folder came over but not the Sub folders.
How can I get the subfolders to show up in Outlook address book?

They won't. Simply recreate them.

Thank you for the replies. What I do not understand is the sub folders are showing on the HD copied file, yet the subfolders will not import, only the main identity folder will import.
If the sub folders are part of the main identity folder why will the not import?
Maybe someone else has an idea.
Thanks again
Harry

Found an easy solution. Made new sub folders under main identity, then went to .wab backup, copied and pasted files (names) from the old folders. It Worked.
Thought others would like to hear one solution.
