Hi everyone. I exported my contacts list from my outlook account at
work, and wish to import these into my Outlook account at home. But
after I choose the file to import and move to the "Select Destination
folder" screen on the import wizard, the screen is blank and I cannot
choose where to import the file to, and move on to the next screen.
Is there a reason for this? I've trawled the internet for an answer,
but nothing I found has helped. 'm fully patched on Outlook 2003. My
work account is a Exchange mailbox account, and my account at home is
POP3.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks in advance

Steve

Instead of exporting to CSV I would export from Exchange to a PST file, then
take that PST file home and open it in Outlook there. See
http://www.howto-outlook.com/Howto/backupandrestore.htm for a good tutorial
on backing up and restoring Outlook data, and
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/sync.htm for help with synchronizing
Outlook data between two machines.
