I need to transfer all my contacts to a new computer but do not have burning
capabilities. I have Microsoft Outlook 2000.

Perhaps you should include what transfer capabilities you do have rather
than what you don't have.
You might also want to mention the size of your Contacts Folder.
We really have nothing to go on that would permit an answer to your
question.

Do you have network capability on both?

Thanks Brian!

I have network capability but each computer is on a different network.

Unless you have _some_ way to mode data between the two machines, you can't
do what you want.  At the very least, you could place one PC's hard drive in
the other PC and get data that way.

I was worried about that. What about a UBS cable (or whatever it's called)?

You'd be better off putting a network cable between the two machines.  I
don't know how you'd use a USB connection.

Thank you, Brian. That helps me narrow down my choices and better understand
where I'm going with this!
