I use Outlook 2003 at the office and Outlook 2002 at home.
I would like to import my contacts from the office to my
home machine. Unfortunatley, the new .pst format in
Outlook 2003 will not import into Outlook 2002. Any ideas
on how to achieve this?

Sure. This is another reason not to export when you need to transfer Outlook
data from one installation to another.
In this case, you would need to use Outlook 2003 to create a new PST file in
"Outlook 97-2002" format. Copy your data into that file. Then you can open
it in an earlier version.
