MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / February 2008Moving contacts to PC
I primarily use OL for tasks & contacts in my clerical support role. I'm trying to copy contacts that I saved on my jump drive as a PST file onto my home laptop and I keep getting an incorrect password error message at the personal folders box when trying to import the data file. I'm using the directions from MS Outlook's site. I was successful transporting from PC-PC some time ago at the worksite using a floppy. Also, though it works, I don' quite understand why my floppy has to be used at the 2nd PC where I exported the file to whenever I open Outlook. Thanx to anyone much more proficient than me!-- brennie You never transfer data by importing. You open the file in Outlook. You can only open a file that is on a hard drive and that has no read only attribute.  SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] >I primarily use OL for tasks & contacts in my clerical support role.
