MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / October 2005Copying Address books
I think my real problem is I don't know how to ask the built-in help feature the right question. Can someone point me to information, please, about how to copy my Outlook address book from my office computer to my home office computer so I can work off of our VPN? Many thanks, SLM Create a new PST file using the File menu > New > Outlook Data File command Copy your Contacts folder into that PST Exit Outlook Copy that PST file onto some sort of media for transport to home Put that PST file on to your home machine Open it in Outlook using the File menu > Open > Outlook Data File Copy the info you need into your Contacts folder >I think my real problem is I don't know how to ask the built-in help >feature > the right question.

Many thanks, SLM If you are not using a pab (Personal Address Book) and your addresses are in the Contact folder then you can export the Contact folder to a CSV or Excel or even PST file and then import that in. Do you also connect to an Exchange Server! >I think my real problem is I don't know how to ask the built-in help >feature > the right question.
