cannot export to .csv

[mfhtn]

I am trying to export my contacts from outlook 2000 to windows mail. I have
found several posts that say to export to a .csv file, but when I try I get
an error "outlook cannot start import/export engine. This feature is not
currently installed. would you like to install it now?" When I click yes, it
says it cannot find the file, please insert Office 2000 cd, which I don't
have since it was pre-installed on my system.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
thanks

Ask your OEM. No one else can provide those files.

Vendors who supply preinstalled software also provide methids of generating
install disks. There should be a procedure outlined in the documents you
received with the PC that describe the process.
