Hi Russ,

By "account," I meant Windows logon profile. I created our joint Contacts
list while logged onto my Windows profile. I exported because I wanted to
move only the Contacts and not my e-mail to her Windows logon profile.

I am running Outlook 2003 on Windows 2000. No Exchange Server, just our one
computer.

I have been able successfully to export contacts to a comma-delimited file,
e-mail it to my wife, and import the Contacts that way which I guess solves
the problem, but I remain curious why I could not open nor e-mail the
exported .pst file. Why does one not import nor export such a file? I sure
would appreciate a brief tutorial.

Thanks!

Michael
