Use Folder List view to examine this PST file. If you did what you said, you
will see your Contacts Folder.

I have a strange thing here. I have two legitimate installations of Outlook
2007, one on a desktop and one on a laptop. The laptop has all my contacts
on it.
I created a new data file, added a folder "Contacts" with Contact Items
set as the content type, and copied all my contacts into it. I then closed
Outlook, and copied the new pst file to a shared network drive. On the
desktop, I copied the pst file to the local HDD, opened Outlook, and did
File-Open Outlook Data File. There is NO contacts folder to be seen in the
opened pst file! Yet if I open the file on the other machine, there is the
folder. What am I doing wrong?
