How can I copy ONE contact folder to another PC?
 
I am using OL 2007 on both PC's. On my laptop I have a subfolder in my
"Contacts" folder I would like to copy to my desktop PC. Is there an easy
way to do this?

Thanks

Milly,

I do not see on the website where I can copy just ONE contact folder. All I
see is how to export/import the PST file. Did I miss something?

Copy the .pst file to the new computer and open it there. Copy your sub-folder to the current .pst and then close the copied .pst file.

And it you don't want to do it Milly's way (the easiest, IMHO), then create
a new PST with FileNewOutlook Data File, copy the one folder to that new
PST, close that PST with right-clickClose (on its root), close Outlook, and
copy that PST to the other system, opening it in Outlook there with
FIleOpenOutlook Data File, giving you access to the one folder the PST
contains.
