If it's not a contacts folder, then what is the name of the address list
that you want to export?

Is there a way to export the address book from outlook to an excel (csv
or
other) type of file?
The function exists ok in the outlook express address book - but I can't
see
anything in outlook.

Any help appreciated,
John Davy

"Outlook Address Book" is the name of a container in the Address Book dialog in Outlook for address lists derived from your contacts folders. It contains no data itself and has no export function.

Under the Outlook Address Book container, you should see the names of Outlook contacts folders that you have chosen to expose in the address book. Do you see them? Are these what you want to export? What are their names?

I think I must be just going a bit senile

I have outlook 2003 sp2

If I go to tools / address book (Ctrl Shift B) I can see my contacts
there - but they are not in my contacts folder

If they're visible in the Address Book, then they MUST be in SOME Contacts
folder you currently have in your mail profile because the Address Book is
nothing but a view of those Contacts folders you have enabled as address
books. Use the Folder List view to locate all of your Contacts folders.
