I am using Outlook 2002 on a Winddows XP Home edition.
I want to back up all the information in my contacts section on to a file or
files on a CD.
I was unable to produce a .CSV file.
I don't care how I achieve this as long as I can produce a recoverable file
of all my contacts on Outlook Contacts 2002 on a CD.

Just copy your Outlook Data File. The file you need to back up is your
Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's where all the mail, calendar, contacts
etc are stored.
Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup:
