Copy single contact
 
I want to copy a single or several contacts to a folder outside Outlook? I
will use this to copy some of my contacts from my PC to my laptop.

The easiest way is simply to copy your PST to the laptop and open it there,
pulling from it the items you wish to copy.

Thanks, but doesn't that bring in all the contacts on the PC's pst to the
laptop?

To add to Brian's suggestion.....

you could make an additional pst file (file | new | outlook data file) and
Drag the Contacts into it (make a Contacts Folder). Then take that pst to
the laptop.

Sure, but it doesn't put all the other contacts into your main contacts
folder, since you copy only the ones you want. When you're done copying,
you close the extra PST.

Of you can do as Judy suggested and make a PST whose Contacts folder
contains only the contacts you want and copy that.
