You've lost me. Be more specific. Had you followed the directions I posted,
you should have 2 PST files open in your profile. You simply select the
Contacts in the Contacts folder from one PST file and copy them to the
Contacts Folder of the other using the steps I posted.

Sorry, I wasn't specific enough. The Alzheimer's crack meant that I
didn't remember what to do after step 4. I just got a blank window that
didn't display the contact entries (from which I was supposed to select
the ones I wanted to copy. (And thanks for the fast response. You work
weekends, too, eh?)

Once you select the Contacts you want to copy, Use Edit Copy to
Folder...
That will open a dialog box that will let you set your other PST file's
Contact Folder as the target.

I'm not being sarcastic, Russ, I'm just being honest.
I can't do it because I don't know how. :-)

Nevertheless, I did succeed in accomplishing a selective copy, but
cancelled
it when I thought it was taking too long and I thought it was going
after
the entire contacts list. Unfortunately, I did not write down the steps
I
took, and now that I'm willing to try again, I can't remember what I
did.
Here's what I've got so far:

1) Know ahead of time which OL data file goes with which profile.
(Control
Panel | Mail | Profiles | ... no problem here)

2) Open OL for the receiving profile. (Do I select Contacts at this
point?)

3) Click File | Open | Outlook data file.

4) Double-click the .pst file for the sending profile.

The first time I got this far I was able to open the sending contacts
and
select the entries to copy. and I managed to get to an option that would
let
me copy selected items to the Contacts folder, but now ... I'm
Alzheimer's
material.

Please help me get to the finish line.

Thanks. Bud

Why can't you just open the PST file in which they reside and copy
them?

WinXP Home SP2, Outlook 2003.

How can I copy selected contacts from one profile to another in
Outlook 2003?
