Anyone know how to do this?

Please don't just say use a .pst File, as my new pc doesn't seem to offer
that option. If that is the best way, any chance of offering the solution
is step-by-step Idiot's Guide form?

3/1/04 Exporting Outlook address book
Question
I just got laid off. How do I move my Microsoft Outlook address book at work to my Outlook Express address book at home?


Answer:

Exporting Outlook to Outlook Express--

Well, the answer is easier than it seems, but follow these steps and you should have most of your contact information. I say most as sometimes (esp. if the export doesn't run smoothly), a field or 2 gets lost in translation.

1. Open outlook and click on file/import and export
2. Click on Export to a file/next
3. Click on Comma Separated Values (Windows)/next
4. Select Contacts/next
5. Name the file/next
6. Map Custom Fields if desired and then click finish.

Copy the file to a floppy or e-mail (or whatever) and when you get home, then do the following--

0. Copy the file to a easy to get location (like the desktop)
1. Open Outlook Express and click on file/import/Other address book
2. Click on Text File (Comma Separated Values)/Import
3. Browse to file or type in if you know the exact location/next
4. Select which fields you want imported/finish

Voila, contacts imported.

Sadly, nothing has worked so far; I did manage to save the file as a .csv
file, but my new Outlook Express still rtefuses to accept it as an Import.

Nor wil it accept a .pst Import, and my old Outlook Contacts won't save us a
..wab file either!

I can't believe Microsoft don't have a workround for this as thousands must
be similarly inconvenienced.

Any suggestions?
