Moving Address book

[Jim]

I have a new compiuter and want to move my address book
from Outlook 2000 to the new one running outlook 2002. I
tried to do the export file but it says it ios not set up
to export, (inserted SBE disc it was loaded off of and
file does not exist that it says I need) Any ideas would
be great. Thanks

List the steps you used and the exact error message. There is no option to
export the "address book." Contacts are stored in the Contacts Folder.
That's what you export.

I am buying a new PC with XP Pro and Office 2003. I currently have Office 2000 and want to move all my contacts to the new PC. Can I do this by floppy? or we do have a cdrw. How do we do it???

The file you need to back up is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's
where all the mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup:
