I will try to be as clear as I can. Our facility does not have Exchange
unfortunately. I do have a way of backing up Outlook data. I export a .pst
file to the server under the users drive. Then I change the data file to
read that .pst file from that point on so nothing is stored locally on the
client. The file is then backed up every night. Thought I was smart doing
this. The problem occurs when adding a device that is used to hot sync with
Outlook contacts. The sync fucntion looks for the file *.pab and not a .pst.
Well that no longer exists because I got rid of that computer that held that
local .pab file with the contacts. My question is how do I take the current
contacts which reside in a *.pst file or just in Outlook and save it into a
*.pab so when I load hotsync it will find that *.pab under the the local
settings for that user. I have tried a number of things without success.
Importing and exporting doesn't let you do it.
