You need to use the Export function from the main Outlook window, not the
address book. Select the option to export to a file and select the personal
folders file. Then select the Contacts folder to export.

|| What version of Outlook are you using? The Windows Address Book
|| (.wab) is used by Outlook Express and older versions of Outlook in a
|| sharing mode. All of the contacts are kept in the .pst file. If you
|| used Outlook, you have a .pst file.

|||| Search for a file with the .pst extension on it. It holds all of
