How do I import Outlook Contacts files from a backup?
That would be the best. No you cannot open a PST from a CD. It must be on a
hard drive and have both read/write access.

I have a sub folder within my inbox, containing emails. I want to take
them
in any format that they can be opened and read. I assume the expected
format
would be as a pst which they could then read from outlooke.

A "folder full of emails" means what exactly? How and in what format do
you
intend to save these messages?

I'm trying to save a folder full of emails to take with me for an audit
tomorrow. Is there anyway they can be read straight from the disk.
Will be viewing it on their network logged in as one of them rather
than
myself, is that seen as a problem?
Thanks
Neil

Sure it's possible.
This is not an Outlook or Contacts question. This is a question as to
how
to
burn a CD, which should be addressed to the maker's of your CD burning
software.

Mr. Valentine,
I'm following this discussion because I would like to save my
contacts
backup (.pst) to a CD-RW. I closed Outlook , found the contacts
backup
file
in My Documents and then attempted to Send To the CD-RW drive. I
get a
series of messages difficulty loading. Is it possible to send
my
contacts packup file to CD and how is it done? Korine

You provided no information. You copied your Contacts how and in
what
format?
Importing is never a good choice for transferring Outlook data.

I am copying my contacts to a CD for my boss to import into his
Outlook.
I
attempted to simulate the import on my system after copying to
the
disk,
but
I am told I do not "have permission" to access the files (that I
just
created) on the disk. First time around, I did not enter a lock
or
password,
and the second time around I did put one in. Neither time did it
even
give
me the opportunity to enter any password at all. Isn't there a
simpler
way
to do this, and one that does not cost more money like the
Sharepoint
services sites?
