Our PC's run Outlook 2003 with MS exchange.

A colleague has recently had a new PC and wants to copy his contacts from the old one to the new one.

How do we do this ?

normally you have to find the .pst files do a search from within windows chose to find hidden files as they are hidden in the documents and settings folder

when you find them save them to a disc or data stick then find the same folder on the new computer save them in to there. To find the folder you will have to go to c drive select tools -folder options- view-show hidden files if your stuck post and ill help you

Not done it myself, but a Google suggested this:

what i said should work for contacts email and meetings so i suppose it is what you need

Done. Thanks for the help.

I exported to a .pst file then imported to the new PC.

no worries

yup thats the way to do it

shouldn't all that stuff be stored centrally :confused:

what's to stop you configuring a second email account on your PC with your work mates details and reading his email and sending email "from" him...

Isn't the pst file the POST file rather than the contacts tho?
